RECOMMENDATION FOR A COUNCIL REGULATION
concerning the conclusion of the Agreement between the European 
Economic Community and the Republic of Korea on trade in textile 
products
(submitted to the Council by the Commission)
COM(85) 427 final

EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
r
1. By Decision of 25 February 1982, the Council authorised the Commission  
to open negotiations with Korea 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
Korea from 22.5 to 13.12.1982.
Following the negotiations, a draft Agreement was drawn up.
\ \
The draft Agreement:
(i) covers all MFA products of wool, cotton and man-made fibres  
originating in Korea :
(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 re­
straint measures may be introduced for categories of products  
not initially subject to limitation, where certain thresholds  
are exceeded,
(iv) establishes a<double checking system for categories of products  
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.
/-

The Heads of the Delegation initialled the text of the draft Agreement  
on '13 december 1982, having noted that it correctly represented the  
results of the negotiations.
In order to ensure that the successful implementation of the Agreement
should not be put at risk and to prevent a flood of exports preceding
its entry into force, the Community, following the conclusion 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 Council
(2)Regulation (EEC) N° 3762/83 of 19 December 1983
The Commission considers that the draft Agreement embodies an  
arrangement which is acceptable to the Community. It therefore recom­
mends that the Council:
(i) 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.

of quantitative lim its liab le to be agreed following the consultations 
referred to in paragraph 2, m ay be carried out for the quota year in which 
the request to open consultations in at ordance with paragraph 2 was made, 
or for the following year if the quota or the current year is exhausted, 
where clear evidence of circumvention i ;  provided.
4. Should the p arties be unable in the course of consultations to reach a 
satisfactory solution within the period specified in A rticle 16 para 1
of the Agreement, the Community shall have the rig h t, where clear evidence 
of circumvention has been provided/ to deduct from the quantitative lim its 
established under th is  Agreement amounts equivalent to the products of 
the Republic of Korea origin.

A r tic le  12
The Republic of Korea shall endeavour to ensure that export* of te x tile  
products subject to quantitative lim its are spaced out as evenly as possible 
over an agreement year,  due account being taken# in p a rtic u la r, of seasonal 
factors.
Should there be an excessive concentration of imports on any product 
within a category subject to  quantitative lim its under th is  Agreement, 
the Community may request consultations in accordance with the procedure 
specified in A rticle 16 of th is Agreement with a view to remedying th is  
situation.

for each of its  Member States.
2. Portions of the quantitative limit's established in Annex II not used 
in one Member State of the Community m ay be reallocated to another 
M ember State in accordance with the procedures in force in the Community.
The Community undertakes to examine with care and reply within four weeks 
to any request made for reallocation by the Republic of Korea. In the 
event of agreement on such reallocation, the fle x ib ility  provisions set 
out in A rticle 6 shall continue to be applicable to the levels of the 
original allocation.
If, in the course of the application of the Agreement, the Republic of 
Korea finds that the break-down of a limit established 1n Annex II causes 
particu lar d iff ic u ltie s , it m ay request the opening of consultations in 
accordance with the provisions of A rticle 16 with a view to reaching a 
mutually satisfactory solution.
3. Should it appear in any given region of the Community that additional 
supplies are required, the Community may, where measures taken pursuant
to paragraph 1 above are inadequate to cover those requirements, authorize 
the importation of amounts greater than those stipulated in Annex II.

A rticle 14
Should recourse be had to the denunciation provisions of A rticle 18 
paragraph 4, the quantitative lim its established 1n Annex II shall be 
adapted on a pro rata basis.

Dear Mr. greneler
During the negotiations leading to our Agreement on trade in textile  
products initialled on 13 December 1 9 8 2,  you explained to me the following  
points :
1. It is understood that the agreed minute signed between us onl5 December  
1982 providing for deduction of circumvented quantities constitute a final  
settlement of-all circumvented imports prior to 1 January 1 9 8 2, and w h ich  
have not been sett ted before the aforementioned agreed m inute.
2· In respect of oiroumvented imports into the
Community after 1 January 1 9 8 2,  requests 1 for compensation shall be dealt  
with under the terms of Article 11 of this agreement.
3. The EEC would only have recourse to Article 11, paragraph 4 M  a last  
resort, and only if all possibilities of reaching an agreed solution are  
exhausted.
4. In this connection and with a view to minimising possible reoourse to  
Article 11, paragraph 4, the Republic of Korea is prepared to strengthen  
cooperation having regard to the administration and technical procedures
in force in the Community and Korea for the implementation of thiB Agreement,  
in particular by exchanging any useful information expeditiously.
5· Further, I should like to propose that, should the consultation period  
provided for in Article 16 , paragraph I .  be insufficient to complete the  
examination of the evidence adduced the parties may agree to extend that  
period.
I should be grateful for your confirmation of the foregoing and that  
this letter should constitute an agreement between us.
