EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM 
Annexes B to the Cooperation Agreements and Annexes B to the 
Interim Agreements between the European Economic Community and 
Morocco and Algeria respectively, and Annex IV to Decision n* 1/77 
to the EEC-Turkey Association Council of 28 December 1976 on the 
outcome of the second review of the arrangements applicable to 
Turkish agricultural products, provide for the possibility of 
increasing, by fixing an additional amount, the amount of the 
deduction which may be made, under certain conditions, from the 
levy applicable to imports into the Community of olive oil other 
than olive oil having undergone a refining process. 
This additional amount, if any, is fixed for each year of 
application by an exchange of letters between the Contracting 
Parties in the light of the situation on the olive oil market. 
In order to facilitate the management of the agreements concerned, 
the Commission considers it appropriate that the additional amount 
should be maintained at its present level until 31 December 1993 
for Algeria, Morocco and Turkey. 
It therefore recommends that the Council authorize it to negotiate 
the attached exchanges of letters with the countries in question. 
3. In view of the time needed to carry out the procedures, the 
Commission is now submitting to the Council the Decisions on the 
conclusion of the exchange of letters which it proposes to 
negotiate with the countries in question, together with proposals 
for roegulations to implement the measures agreed in the exchanges 
of letters. 
The Commission proposes that the Council adopt these measures as 
soon as it is informed by the former of the completion of the 
negotiations and of the final texts of the exchanges of letters.
