For each successive period of two years thereafter it shall be the equivalent in that national currency of the ECU as at the first working day in October in the year immediately preceding that two-year period.  The amount in the national currency of the exporting country equivalent to the amount expressed in this Article shall be fixed by the exporting country and communicated to the Customs Cooperation Committee no later than one month prior to its entry into force.  When this amount is more than the corresponding amount fixed by the importing country, the importing country shall accept it if the goods are invoiced in the currency of the exporting country.  If the goods are invoiced in the currency of another Member State of the Community, the importing country shall recognize the amount notified by the State concerned.'  Article 2  This Decision shall enter into force on 1 May 1983.  Done at Brussels, 25 April 1983.  For the Association Council  The President  C. KESKIN  (1) OJ No L 59, 5. 3. 1973, p. 74.
