Proposal  for a 

COUNCIL  DECISION 

on a Common  Position  of  the  Community  concerning  a Decision  of  the Joint 
Committee  set  up  under  the  Free  Trade  Agreement  between  the  European 
Communities  and  their Member  States, of  the  one  part,  and  the  Republic  of 
Lithuania,  of the other part, revising Annex VI of this Agreement  concerning 
trade in textile products. 

(presented by the  Commission) 

EXPLANATORY  MEMORANDUM 

Article  10 (1) of the Free Trade Agreement between the European Communities and their 
Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of Lithuania, of the other part, provides 
that the conditions  for  custom  duties  suspension for  textile products of Lithuanian  origin 
listed in Annex VI of this Agreement may be revised by decision of the Joint  Committee, 
in  accordance  with  the  procedures  set  out  in  Article  39  which  provides  that  the  Joint 
Committee  shall  have  the  power  to  take  decisions.  The  decisions  taken  by  the  Joint 
Committee  shall  be  binding  on  the  Parties  which  shall  take  the  measures  necessary  to 
implement the decisions taken. 

Annex  VI  to  this  Agreement  provides  a  list  of  textile  products  originating  in  Lithuania 
and  subject  to Community  tariff  ceilings. For imports  in excess of these annual  ceilings, 
the  Community  may  re-establish  customs  duties  at  any  time  of  the  year  concerned.  In 
1996,  the  Community  re-introduced  normal  customs  duties  on quantities  exceeding  the 
agreed tariff ceilings as of 26 October (valid until 31 December  1996) for textile products 
in only two categories 4 (shirts and t-shirts) and 7 (women's blouses).

Following  a  request  from  the  Lithuanian  authorities,  technical  consultations  between

by the EC in exchange  for  concessions, in  1997, from  Lithuania  on EU priority  clothing 
exports;  Following  these  consultations,  the  Lithuanian  authorities  are  ready  to  reduce 
custom duties from  the present rate of  15% to 5% on the HS lines belonging to categories 
4,5,6,7,  8,  9,12,13,20,33,  34,  35,36,37,  39,42,61,62,65,  88  and  from  the  present  rate  of 
25% to 20% for category 58.

As  a  result  of  these  consultations,  it  is  proposed  that  the  Joint  Committee  decides  to 
increase  tariff  ceilings  for  some  products  originating  in  Lithuania  in  1997  in  exchange 
for  concessions  from  Lithuania  on  priority  clothing  products  originating 
in  the 
Community. 

The Commission  therefore  asks the Council to adopt the attached  proposal  for  a Council 
decision.
