r.CONCLUSION OPANARRANGEMENT WITH THEUNITED STATES OPAMERICA RELATING
TO :,TEEL
THECOMMISSION OPTHEEUROPEAN COMMUNITIES ,
Having regard totheTreaty establishing theEuropean Coal andSteel COMBunity ,
andInpartioular Artiolee 58and95t
Whereas theCommunity hasadopted aseries ofcommon internal rules intended
tohelp thesteel industry torestruoture insooially acceptable condition *,
andinparticular foroertain products asystem ofproduction quotas based
onArticle 58oftheECSC Treaty ,thetightenin^-up eftherules relating
tonon-discriminatory practices andprices andtheir extension toinclude
certain dealers pursuant toArtioles 60,63and95oftheECSC Treaty and
establishment ofCommunity rules oaaidpursuant toArtiole 95$
Whereas
the United States has taken aseries ofmeasures
relating toimports ofsteel products from thoCommunity ;whereas those
mt-inureT aro liablo toaffect thesmooth functioning oftheabovementioned
cc.i::on rules ;whcreu.3 theimposition ofanti–dumping duties ,countervailing
duties andother measures relating toimports aresuch astodivert considerable
quantities from their traditional American markets toother markets ,including
theCommunity market ;whereas this would have anadverse effect onthecommon
rules andinparticular thequota system ,Mould disturb thebalance achieved
with difficulty intrade with third countries andwould affect thesmooth
functioning oftheother Community aeavuros taken toimprove thesituation
i*theCommunity steel industry ;

Whereas th«sCommission therefore opened negotiations with theUnited
biate :.o?America following theCouncil Decision of24July
criminating on6August 1982 inthetext ofanarrangement whereby thepetitions 3
theAmerican industry wouM bewithdrawn andthemeasures taken bytheUnited States
Admi nistrationwould beterminated inreturn for the restriction
ofCorjnunity exports ,andthetext ofanexchange ofletters which the
parties u^rocd torecommend that their respective authorities approve ;
vhcreao theCommunity should therefore conclude such anarrangement with
ths United Statea :
Wherea3 ,moreover ,inorder toattain ,inthecontext ofthefunctioning
ofthecommon market forsteel ,theobjectives oftheTreaty andinparticular
those setoutinthesecond paragraph ofArticle 2andinArticle 3»andin
particular inArticle 3(f)inthelight oftheeconomio situation andof
themeasures relating toCommunity exports totheUnited States market ,it
would appear tobeneoeasary fortheCommunity toconclude andiapl«n«nt
theaboveaentioned arrangement )
Whereas theTreaty ,andinpartioular Article 73thereof ,didnotmake
provision foranintegrated system ofexport restrictions andinternal quotas
such asthat arising from theoonolusion ofthis arrangement bytheCommunity !
whereas inanyevent Artiole 73»which relates only totheadministration of
licences ,simply envisages thecoordination ofnational measures ,andthis
would appear toboinsuffloient toensure theproper implementation ofthe
arrangement |
