In the second subparagraph of Article 6 (1) the amount '1 000 units of account' shall be replaced by '2 355 ECU';  2. In Article 6 (1), the third subparagraph shall be deleted and the following inserted:  'Up to and including 30 September 1987 the ECU to be used in any given national currency of a Member State of the Community shall be the equivalent in that national currency of the ECU as at 1 October 1984. For each successive period of two years, 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.  Revised amounts replacing the amounts expressed in ECU in this Article and in Article 17 (2), may be introduced by the Community at the beginning of any successive two-year period, if necessary, and shall be notified by the Community to the Customs Cooperation Committee not later than one month before they shall come into force. These amounts shall, in any event, be such as to ensure that the value of the limits as expressed in the currency of any Member State shall not decline.  If the goods are invoiced in the currency of another Member State of the Community the importing Member State shall recognize the amount notified by the Member State concerned.';  3. In Article 17 (2) the amounts '60 units of account' and '200 units of account' shall be replaced by '165 ECU' and '470 ECU' respectively.  Article 2  This Decision shall enter into force on 1 April 1986.  Done at Brussels, 21 February 1986.  For the Cooperation Council  The President  M. H. J. Ch. RUTTEN
