EXPLANATORY M£MÔ*ANOUM 

1. 

Council  Regulation  (EEC) No 3914/92 of  19 December  1992<1>  opened a 

series of  tariff quotas for  the year  1993,  including one for 

magnetrons  (order  No 09.2797), which was fixed at 400 000 pieces. 

2. 

The grounds  for  increasing  the volume of  this quota were considered 

by  the Ad Hoc Group on Economic Tariff  Problems on  19 May  1993. 

The commission  proposes  that  the quota be  increased  by  100 000 

pieces. 

Such  is the purpose of  this proposal

amending Regulation  (EEC) No 3914/92 opening and  providing 
for  the administration of Community  tariff  quotas  for certain

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, 

Having regard  to the Treaty establishing  the European Economic Community, 
and  in particular  Article 28 thereof, 

Having regard  to the proposal  from the Commission, 

Whereas Council  Regulation  (EEC) No 3914/92C>  opened,  for  1993, Community 
tariff quotas for certain  industrial  products, and  in particular  magnetrons 
(order  No 09.2797); 

Whereas current  economic data suggests  that Community  demand  for non-
Community  imports of  the product  in question could  in the course of  the 
year exceed  the volume  laid down  in the above Regulation; whereas the 
volume of  the quota  in question should  therefore be  increased by  the amount 
indicated  in Article 1 below; 

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION: 

Art icle 1 

For order  No 09.2797, the table  in Article 1(1) of Council  Regulation  (EEC)
