PARTE II Elenco 3. L'elenco che figura in allegato diventerà "Elenco della Repubblica araba unita" allegato all'Accordo generale dal momento dell'entrata in vigore del presente Protocollo. 4. Qualora taluni negoziati non fossero terminati in tempo utile affinché i risultati possano essere allegati al presente Protocollo alla data in cui questo sarà aperto per la firma, ogni altra concessione risultante da tali negoziati sarà allegata al presente Protocollo; ad essa saranno applicate le disposizioni del Protocollo dal giorno successivo a quello della firma delle parti interessate di un processo verbale. 5. a) Ogniqualvolta il paragrafo 1 dell'articolo II dell'Accordo generale si riferisce alla data di detto Accordo, la data applicabile per ogni prodotto oggetto di una concessione inclusa nell'elenco allegato al presente Protocollo sarà la data del presente Protocollo. b) Agli effetti dei riferimenti fatti alla data dell'Accordo generale di cui al paragrafo 6 a) dell'articolo II di detto Accordo, la data applicabile all'elenco allegato al presente Protocollo sarà quella del presente Protocollo. 6. La "tassa provvisoria per il consolidamento dello sviluppo economico" può essere mantenuta in vigore senza che le sue aliquote possano superare quelle applicabili alla data del presente Protocollo, per quanto concerne i dazi consolidati, fino al 31 dicembre 1975; a quella data, se tale misura sarà ancora in vigore, la questione verrà nuovamente esaminata dalle Parti contraenti. PARTE III Disposizioni finali 7. Il presente Protocollo sarà depositato presso il Direttore generale delle parti contraenti.
