However, under Articles 18 and 19 of the Protocol In question and 
under Article 2 of Council. Regulation (EBC) No ... /91 , the quantities 
for all the above products are subject to annual  increases.  The 
quotas in 1992 will accordingly be increased to the amounts indicated

phased out over the same periods and at the same rates as provided for 

in Articles 5 and 16 of the said Protocol. 

However, pursuant to Commission Regulation (EBC) No .. ./91 of  ... 1991 
on the elimination in two stages of certain customs duties applied by 
the Community of Ten to imports from Spain and Portugal, the residual 
customs duties applicable to products from Spain and Portugal for 
which the dismantling of tariffs continues after 1 January 1993 will 
be eliminated in two equal instalments on 1 January 1992 and 1 January 
1993. 

Furthermore, by Council  Regulation (EBC) No .. ./91 of 
amending the arrangements for inrports into the Community of certain 
agricultural products originating in Algeria, Cyprus, Egypt, Jordan,

3.  Within the limits of these quotas Spain and Portugal will apply the 
duties calculated according to the relevant provisions as set out in 
the Protocol to the EEC/Cyprus Association agreement consequent to the 
accession of Spain and Portugal. 

These Community tariff quotas should be opened for the periods 
indicated in Article 1.

4.  Importations of these wines continue to be subject to the rules 

governing the cxammon organization of the market in wine, in particular 

as regards the reference price applicable to them. 

5.  For the administration of these quotas it Is proposed that the whole 

of the quota volumes be held as Community reserves to which all Member 
States will have access in accordance with the procedure provided for 
in Article 3 of the proposal for a Regulation. 

That is the purpose of the attached proposal.
