EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
I. Council Regulation (EEC )No3438 /80of18December 1980 established
the export arrangement forcertain types ofnon-ferrous metal waste and scrap
for 1981 .With regard tolead waste and scrap (C.C.T. ex78.01 )the
regulation introduced anexport quota forthe first half of1981 ,pending
theoutcome ofanexamination being carried out todetermine the
definitive arrangement forthewhole of1981
II.After afull examination ofthe situation ofthe market ofthese
products ,theCommission considers that ,taking into account theprovisions
•iofRegulation 2603 /69establishing common rules forexports ^,the
maintaining ofexport quotas for lead waste and scrap isnotjustified .
Itconsiders however that ,with aview tofollowing developments in
exports oftheproducts inquestion ,theexport authorization system in
force intheabove-mentioned Regulation No3438 /80,foraluminium waste
and scrap ,should beproposed forthe second half of1981 .
Accordingly ,itisproposed that theCouncil adopt theattached proposal
for aregulation .

I
^Whereas ,byRegulation (EEC)No3438 /80(2),theCouncil established export
arrangements forcertain types ofnon-ferrous metal waste and scrap ,
Whereas theexport quota arrangement for lead waste and scrap was
established forthefirst half of1981 pending theoutcome ofan
examination oftheCommunity market forthese product ^;whereas itis
necessary toestablish anexport arrangement forthesecond half ofthis
year ,
Whereas thesituation ofthemarket ofthese products nolonger justifies
themaintenance ofexport quotas ;whereas however ,inorder tobeable
«tokeep anaccurate and up-to-date check ondevelopments inexports ofthe
products inquestion ,itappears necessary tomake these exports subject
toprior authorization tobeissued bytheappropriate authorities of
theMember States following the same procedures asthose inforce for
aluminium waste and scrap laid down in Regulation No3438 /80,
