COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES 
C0M(90) 495 final - SYN 297 to 302 
Brussels, 25 October 1990 
AMENDED PROPOSAL 
THE COMMUNITY AND GERMAN UNIFICATION 
Volume II 
PROPOSALS FOR LEGISLATION 
(presented by the Commission pursuant to Article 149(3) EEC) 
Explanatory Memorandum 
1. On 24 October Parliament adopted an opinion on the Commission's 
proposals regarding German unification. 
2. While the Commission has had very little time to examine Parliament's 
amendments, it has carried out an Initial appraisal and now supports 
some of the amendments. It reserves the right to adopt further 
amendments In the context of preparations for second reading In the 
CouncI I. 
3. To simplify matters, Parliament's amendments have been grouped Into 
three categories (Annexes): 
(a) those which the Commission can accept in their entirety (Annex I); 
(b) those which the Commission proposes to take up in principle, while 
adapting the wording to fit in with the general balance of its 
proposals (Annex II); 
(c) those which the Commission feels are relevant but whose demands 
- are covered by Community legislation in general; or 
-will be the subject of statements when the 
Regulations are adopted (Annex III). 
In its opinions, Parliament has raised questions of a general nature 
concerning committee procedures and the link between the proposed 
measures and revision of the financial perspective. 
As regards committee procedures (Annex I 1(a)), the Commission would 
remind Parliament that the flexibility clause is governed by a IIA 
Committee insofar as it affected agriculture, fisheries and commercial 
policy, this being the type of committee already used in these areas. 
On this point, the Commission proposal coincides with Parliament's 
position. 
For other sectors, the Commission also felt that it would be best to use 
existing committees (Ilia), even though recourse to this type of 
committee is at odds with the Commission's general approach to committee 
procedures. 
Since Parliament has not shared this pragmatic approach, the Commission 
Is prepared to accept Parliament's amendment which is line with the 
attitude traditionally adopted by the Commission in this matter. 
It notes, however, that the paragraph stating that the opinion will be 
recorded In the minutes Is contrary to the rules governing committees 
laid down by the Council Decision of 13 July 1987. 
As regards the link between the proposed measures and revision of the 
financial perspective, the Commission feels that the wording of the 
recital proposed by Parliament Is fully In line with Its own Intentions 
and the procedures It has followed. It would like to stress that It 
proposed a revision of the financial perspective at the beginning of 
October and Is preparing to Introduce a letter of amendment to the draft 
budget for 1991. 
It may be assumed that decisions will be taken on this matter prior to 
final adoption of the transitional measures for German unification. 
The Commission feels that It would be Inappropriate to Include the 
recital proposed by Parliament In regulations and directives which have 
no financial Impact. 
The Commission will ask the Council to make a declaration taking up the 
basic Idea supported by this amendment when It adopts Its common 
posit Ion. 
5. The Commission shares Parliament's concern, expressed in amendment 
No 52, that equal treatment be guaranteed between agricultural exports 
to the former GDR from Spain and Portugal and from European members of 
the CMEA (Annex IV). 
The Commission accordingly proposes an arrangement, based on Articles 
89(2) and 234(3) of the Act of Accession, whereby Spanish and Portuguese 
agricultural products exported to the former GDR would be exempt from 
the import charge resulting from that Act.

ANNEX IV 
EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM 
One result of the new situation created by the unification of Germany has 
been to make it more difficult to dispatch wine and fruit and vegetable 
products from Spain to the territory of the former German Democratic 
Republic. The export refunds have been abolished and the products are, by 
virtue of the Act of Accession, subject to regulatory and compensation 
mechanisms when released for consumption on the rest of the market. A 
comparable situation will exist for Portuguese products from 
1 January 1991. 
This situation will combine with the effects of the tariff concessions 
discussed by the Council, to be granted to the Eastern European countries 
which traditionally export to the territory of the former German Democratic 
Republic. 
As a result it is proposed that, while the above tariff concessions apply, 
application of the regulatory or compensation mechanisms provided for in 
the Act of Accession for the products In question originating in Spain and 
Portugal be suspended. The suspension should be limited to the quantities 
traditionally exported by these Member States to the former German 
Democratic Republic.

Proposal for a 
COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) 
on the temporary suspension of the mechanisms provided for in Articles 123, 
152, 318 and 338 of the Act of Accession for wine and fruit and vegetable 
products originating in Spain and Portugal and released for consumption in 
the territory of the former German Democratic Republic 
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, 
Having regard to the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal, and in 
particular Articles 89 (2) and 234 (3) thereof, 
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, 
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament, 
Whereas, as a result of the unification of Germany, wine and fruit and 
vegetable products originating in Spain and exported to the territory of 
the former German Democratic Republic are subject to the regulatory and 
compensation mechanisms provided for in the Act of Accession; whereas 
comparable mechanisms are applicable with effect from 1 January 1991 for 
the same products originating in Portugal and exported to the same 
terr i tory; 
Whereas this new situation combines with the concessions made pursuant to 
Council Regulation (EEC) No /90 on the introduction of transitional 
tariff measures for Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Poland, Romania, the 
USSR and Yugoslavia and which are applicable until 31 December 1991; 
whereas, in order not to disadvantage the products In question originating 
in Spain and Portugal and released for consumption In the territory of the 
former German Democratic Republic by comparison with products originating 
in Eastern European countries, the mechanisms in question should be 
temporarily suspended during the period of application of the above tariff 
concessions, to the extent of the quantities traditionally exported from 
Spain and Portugal to the former German Democratic Republic,

vegetable products originating In Spain and Portugal. 
The suspension shall be limited to the average annual quantities which 
were the subject of trade between Spain and Portugal and the 
German Democratic Republic In 1987, 1988 and 1989. 
2. The suspension shall only apply if the products in question are released 
for consumption in the territory of the former German Democratic

- are the subject of a licence issued by the relevant German authorities
