Proposal for a 
COUNCIL DECISION 
on trade in certain steel products between the European Community and 
the Republic of Kazakhstan 
. 
(presented by the Commission) 
 
EN 2   EN EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM  
The Partnership and Cooperation Agreement be tween the European Communities and their 
Member States, on the one hand, and the Republic  of Kazakhstan, on the other hand, provides 
that trade in certain steel products shall be th e subject of a specific Agreement on quantitative 
arrangements. The current bilateral Agreem ent between the European Coal and Steel 
Community (ECSC) and the Gove rnment of the Republic of K azakhstan on trade for certain 
steel products concluded on 22 July  2002 will expire on 31 December 2004. 
After the expiry of the ECSC Treaty, the Eu ropean Community took  over all rights and 
obligations of international Agreements contracted by the ECSC. 
Preliminary discussions between the Parties indicate  that both have the in tention to conclude a 
new Agreement for 2005 and subsequent years. 
Pending the conclusion and entry into force of the new Agreement, autonomous measures 
fixing quantitative limits for the ye ar 2005 are necessary. Given that the conditions that led to 
the fixing of the quantitative limits for 2004 rema in in place, it is ap propriate to set the 
quantitative limits for the year 2005 at the same level as for th e year 2004, but by taking into 
account the EU enlargement fully. 
This Council Decision will be au tomatically repealed when th e new Agreement enters into 
force.

Proposal for a 
COUNCIL DECISION 
on trade in certain steel products between the European Community and 
the Republic of Kazakhstan 
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION, 
Having regard to the Treaty esta blishing the European Communit y, and in particular Article 
133 thereof, 
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, Whereas: (1) The Partnership and Cooperation Agreement between the European Communities and 
their Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of Kazakhstan, of the other 
part
1, provides in Article 17, paragraph 1, that tr ade in certain steel products shall be 
subject to a specific Agreemen t on quantitative arrangements. 
(2) The current bilateral Agreement between the European Coal and Steel Community 
(ECSC) and the Government of the Republic  of Kazakhstan on trad e for certain steel 
products concluded on 22 July 20022 will expire on 31 December 2004. 
(3) The European Community has taken over th e international obligat ions of the ECSC 
since the expiry of the ECSC  Treaty, and measures relating  to trade in steel products 
with third countries now fall under the comp etence of the Community in the field of 
trade policy. 
(4) Preliminary discussions between the Parties indicate that both have the intention to 
conclude a new Agreement for 2005 and subsequent years. 
(5) Pending the signature and the entry into force of the new Agreement, quantitative 
limits for the year 2005 should be established. 
(6) Given that the conditions that led to the fixing of the quantitative limits for 2004 
remain in place, it is appropriate to set th e quantitative limits for the year 2005 at the 
same level as for the year 2004, but by ta king into account the EU enlargement fully. 
(7) It is necessary to provide the means to ad minister this regime within the Community in 
such a way as to facilitate the implemen tation of the new Agreement by foreseeing as 
much as possible similar provisions.

2 OJ L 222, 19.8.2002, p. 19. 
 
EN 4   EN (8) It is necessary to ensure that the orig in of the products in question is checked and 
appropriate methods of administrative cooperation are set up  to this end. 
(9) Products placed in a free zone or im ported under the arrangements governing customs 
warehouses, temporary importation or inward  processing (suspension system) should 
not be counted against the limits esta blished for the products in question. 
(10) The effective application of this Decisi on requires the introduction of a requirement of 
a Community import licence for the entry into free circulation in the Community of the products in question. 
(11) In order to ensure that these quantitat ive limits are not exceed ed, it is necessary to 
establish a management procedure whereby the competent authorities of the Member 
States will not issue import licences befo re obtaining prior confirmation from the 
Commission that appropriate amounts remain available within th e quantitative limit in 
question.
