(1) 

In  accordance  with  the  Council  negotiating  directives  of  September  1997, the 
Commission has negotiated an Agreement in the form of an Exchange of Letters 
amending the existing  Agreement  between the  European  Community  and the 
Socialist  Republic  of  Vietnam  on  trade  in  textile  and  clothing  products.  This 
Agreement  provides,  on the  one  hand, for  the  removal  of  certain  quantitative 
limits,  the  raising  of  other  quantitative  limits  hitherto  maintained  by  the 
Community on imports from Vietnam and the establishment of a double-checking 
system  for  certain  products  and,  on  the  other  hand,  for  better  access  for 
Community textile and clothing products to the Vietnamese market. 

(2) 

The Commission initialled this Agreement on 17 November 1997. 

(3) 

The  Council 
is therefore  invited  to  approve  on  behalf  of  the  Community  this 
proposal for a Council Decision on the provisional application of the Agreement 
in  the  form  of  an  Exchange  of  Letters  amending  the  existing  Agreement 
between  the  European  Community  and  the  Socialist  Republic  of  Vietnam  on 
trade  in  textile  and  clothing  products  pending  the  formal  conclusion  of  that 
Agreement on behalf of the Community.

Letter No 1 

Sir,  • 

1. 

I have the honour to refer to the negotiations  held from 29 to 31 September and from 27 
to  29  October  1997  between  our  respective  delegations  with  a  view  to  amending  the 
Agreement  between  the  European  Community  and  the  Socialist  Republic  of  Viet  Nam 
on  trade  in  textile  and  clothing  products  initialled  on  15  December  1992  and  applied 
from  1 January  1993, as last amended by the Agreement  in the form of an exchange  of 
letters  initialled on  1 August  1995 (hereinafter  referred to as "the Agreement"). 

2. 

As a result of those negotiations  it was agreed to amend the Agreement as follows: 

2.1 

The text of Article 3 is replaced by the following: 

"Article 3 

1.  Viet  Nam agrees to limit its exports to the Community  of products listed in Annex  II to 
the amounts  set out therein for each Agreement year. 

In  the  allocation  of  quantities  for  export  to  the  Community,  Viet  Nam  shall  not 
discriminate against companies fully or partially owned by Community  investors. 

2.  Exports  of  textile  products  set  out  in Annex  II shall  be  subject  to  a  double-checking 
system as specified in Protocol A. 

3.  In  administering  the  quantitative  limits  referred  to  in  paragraph  1,  Viet  Nam  shall 
ensure that the Community  textile industry  benefits from utilisation of such limits. 

In particular,  Viet Nam undertakes to reserve, as a priority, 30% of the quantitative  limits 
for  firms  in  that  industry  for  a  period  of  three  months  beginning  on  1 January  of  each 
year.  For this purpose, contracts made with such firms during the period in question  and 
submitted  to  the  Vietnamese  authorities  during  the  same  period  shall  be  taken  into 
consideration. 

4.  To facilitate the implementation  of these provisions, the Community  shall provide  the 
competent  Vietnamese  authorities,  before  31  October  of  each  year,  with  a  list  of 
interested  manufacturers  and  processors  and  of  the  indicative  quantity  of  products 
requested for each firm. To this end, the firms concerned  must make direct contact with 
the  relevant  Vietnamese  bodies  during  the  period  specified  in  paragraph  3,  in  order  to 
verify what quantities are available under the reserve referred to in paragraph 3. 

5.  Subject to the provisions of this Agreement,  and without  prejudice to the  quantitative 
system  applicable  to  products  subject  to  the  operations  referred  to  in  Article  4,  the 
Community  undertakes  to  suspend  the  application  of  quantitative  restrictions  currently 
in force in respect of products covered by this Agreement. 

6.  Exports  of  products  referred  to  in Annex  IV to the Agreement  which  are  not  subject 
to  quantitative  limits  shall  be  subject  to  the  double-checking  system  referred  to  in 
paragraph 2."

the  relevant  Vietnamese  bodies  during  the  period  specified  in  paragraph  3,  in  order  to 
verify what quantities are available under the reserve referred to in paragraph 3. 

5.  Subject  to the  provisions  of this Agreement,  and without  prejudice  to the  quantitative 
system  applicable  to  products  subject  to  the  operations  referred  to  in  Article  4,  the 
Community  undertakes  to  suspend  the  application  of  quantitative  restrictions  currently

ANNEX  G 

Agreed  Minute 

In the implementation of Article 3, Paragraph  1, of the Agreement, the government of Viet  Nam 
shall  follow  a  quota  allocation  policy  which  avoids  discrimination  against  companies  fully  or 
partially  owned  by  Community 
investors  operating  in  Viet  Nam.  In  order  to  increase 
transparency  of  the  quota  allocation  policy,  the  government  of  Viet  Nam  will  provide  the 
Commission  with  the  texts  of  all  relevant  regulations  and  general  administrative  acts  as 
promptly  as they  have been adopted. The Vietnamese government  also undertakes  to provide 
the Commission with statistics  regarding quota allocation. The parties will decide upon content 
and format of such information. 

At  the  request  of  either  party  consultation  may  be  held  on  specific  matters  related  to  quota 
allocation.

The Vietnamese  delegation  provided  information on the régime applicable  to industrial  foreign 
investments.  In  this  regard,  it  was  noted  that  foreign  investment  licensing  arrangements 
normally  include export  performance  requirements. The delegation of Viet  Nam confirmed  that 
companies  fully  or  partially  owned  by Community  investors  operating  in Viet  Nam are  entitled 
to  sell  the  portion  of  their  production  not  bound  to  export  on  the  domestic  market  without 
administrative restrictions or special taxation.

concerning  access  to  the  Vietnamese  market  for  products  of  the  textile  and  clothing  sector 
originating  in the  European Community  attached to the agreement  initialled on  1 August  1995.

established  a  tariff  reduction  schedule  pursuant  to  paragraph  4  of  the  above  mentioned 
Protocol of Understanding  with  regard to the  priority  products  listed in Annex  II to the  Protocol 
and that tariff  reductions according to the schedule had been implemented for  1996 and  1997.

Agreed  Minute 

The  two  parties  agree  that  transfers  into  any  category  may  be  made,  after  notification  to  the 
Community,  up to  10% of the quantitative  limit to which  the transfer  is made,  provided that  an 
equivalent  quantity  is  deducted  from  the  corresponding  quantitative  limit  established  by  the 
Community  in respect of another ASEAN country. 

The  two  parties  also  agree  that  the  increase  in  any  category  of  products  resulting  from  the 
cumulative application of the transfer  referred to in the first paragraph and of the provisions  of 
Article  9 (1), (2)  and (3) of the Agreement  during an Agreement  year  must  not exceed  22% of 
the quantitative  limit laid down for the category to which the transfer  is made. 

Implementation  of  such  transfers  shall  be  subject  to  receipt  of  a  corresponding  notification 
from  the  ASEAN  country  accepting  a  deduction  of  the  quantitative  limit  concerned.  Such 
transfers shall be applicable for the year during which the notification is made.
