Recommendation for a  
COUNCIL REGULATION
concerning the conclusion of the Agreement between the  
European Economic Community and the  
Republic of Guatemala on trade in textile products
(submitted to the Commission to the Council)
C0MC84) 207 final

EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
1. By Decision of 25 February 1982, the Council authorised the Commis­
sion to open negotiations with Guatemala with a view to the  
conclusion of an agreement on trade in textile products.
2. In accordance with that Council Decision, and in consultation with  
the Article 113 Committee, the Commission conducted negotiations with  
Guatemala on 27 July 1982.
Following the negotiations, a draft Agreement was drawn up.
The draft Agreement:
(i) covers all MF A products of wool, cotton and man-made fibres  
originating in Guatemala,
(ii) calls for voluntary restraint, at agreed levels, on exports  
to the Community of certain categories of products covered by  
the Agreement,
(iii) provides for a consultation procedure whereby voluntary  
restraint measures may be introduced for categories of pro­
ducts not initially subject to limitation, where certain  
thresholds are exceeded,
(iv) establishes a double checking system for categories of pro­
ducts subject to limitation, and an origin control system for  
all categories covered by the Agreement,
(v) includes a flexibility clause allowing the transfer of a
certain percentage of the quotas from category to category,  
or from one year to another,
(vi) includes an "anti-surge" clause allowing in certain circum­
stances the suspension of flexibility or the introduction of
temporary limits within quotas,
(vii) includes an "anti—fraud" clause allowing in certain circum­
stances the debiting against the quota of the true country of  
origin of quantities shipped fraudulently,
(viii) in exchange for limitation, contains an undertaking by the
Community not to introduce further quantitative restrictions  
under Article XIX of the GATT or Article 3 of the MFA,  or to  
measures having an effect equivalent to quantitative restric­
tions.

-2-
The Heads of the Delegation initialled the text of the draft Agree­
ment on 27 July 1982, having noted that it correctly represented the  
results of the negotiations.
3. In order to ensure that the successful implementation of the Agree­
ment should not be put at risk and to prevent a flood of exports  
preceding its entry into force, the Community, following the conclu­
sion of the negotiations, proposed to the third countries that until  
such time as the Agreement entered into force both parties should  
apply its provisions on an autonomous basis as from 1 January 1983.  
These provisions were put into effect by Council Regulation (EEC) N°  
3589/82 of 23 December 1982 making the importation into the  
Community of textile products originating in certain third countries  
subject to authorisation and quantitative limitation, as amended by
( p \
Council Regulation (EEC) N° 3762/83 of 19 December 1983 .
4. The Commission considers that the draft Agreement embodies an  
arrangement which is acceptable to the Community. It therefore recom­
mends that the Council:
(1) approve the Agreement by adopting the regulation, the draft
of which is annexed hereto,
(ii) pending approval of the Agreement, take the necessary  
decisions in connection with the signing thereof.
