Proposal for a

COUNCIL DECISION

on the signing and the provisional application of the Agreement on trade in textile
products between the European Community and Bosnia and Herzegovina initialled in
Brussels on 24 November 2000

(presented by the Commission)

EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

In accordance with the Council negotiating directives, the Commission has negotiated with
Bosnia and Herzegovina an agreement on textiles products designed to ensure liberalisation of
trade in this sector.

The Agreement establishes a double-checking system (surveillance) on imports of those
products currently under quotas as in Council Regulation (EC) No 517/94 (categories 1, 2,
2A, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 15, 16, 67), as well as administrative co-operation provisions and a
safeguard mechanism.

An agreed minute on market access encompasses a tariff standstill from Bosnia and
Herzegovina, a non-tariff barriers clause (no new NTBs, no maintaining of existing NTBs,
harmonisation of technical regulations and standards by Bosnia and Herzegovina with those
of the EU, in particular certification and labelling requirements, and a non-discriminatory
clause for textile products versus any other industrial products in the event of a Stabilisation
and Association Agreement). Moreover, a snapback clause in case of non-compliance by
Bosnia and Herzegovina of the Agreed Minute on market access is also included.

An agreed minute specifically on articles 9 and 10 provisions records Bosnia and
Herzegovina's commitment to take any further measures necessary to ensure implementation
of those two articles.

Pending the completion of the relevant procedures,
Agreement is applied provisionally as from 1 March 2001, subject to reciprocity.

the Commission proposes that

the

The Council is invited to approve this proposal for a Council Decision on the signing, on
behalf of the European Community, of the Agreement on trade in textile products between the
European Community and Bosnia and Herzegovina and authorising its provisional application
pending the formal conclusion of that Agreement.

AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITY

AND BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA

ON TRADE IN TEXTILE PRODUCTS

THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITY,

of the one part,

and

BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA,

of the other part,

DESIRING to promote, with a view to permanent cooperation and in conditions providing
every security for trade, the orderly and equitable development of trade in textile products
between the European Community (hereinafter referred to as "the Community") and Bosnia
and Herzegovina;

HAVE AGREED AS FOLLOWS:

Article 1

This agreement establishes the regime applicable to trade of textile products originating in
Bosnia and Herzegovina listed in Annex I.

TITLE I - QUANTITATIVE REGIME

Article 2

1.

The classification of the products covered by this Agreement is based on the tariff and
statistical nomenclature of
the Community (hereinafter called the "Combined
Nomenclature", or in abbreviated form "CN") and any amendments thereof.

Where any decision on classification results in a change of classification practice or a
change of category of any product subject to this Agreement the affected products
shall follow the trade regime applicable to the practice or category they fall into after
such changes.

Any amendment to the Combined Nomenclature (CN) made in accordance with the
procedures in force in the Community concerning categories of products covered by

5

this Agreement or any decision relating to the classification of goods shall not have
the effect of reducing quantitative limits introduced pursuant to this Agreement.

2.

The origin of the products covered by this Agreement shall be determined in
accordance with the rules in force in the Community.

Any amendment
to these rules of origin shall be communicated to Bosnia and
Herzegovina and shall not have the effect of reducing any quantitative limit
established pursuant to this Agreement.

The procedures for control of the origin of the products referred to above are laid
down in Appendix A.

Article 3

4.

Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, exports from Bosnia and Herzegovina to
the Community of products listed in Annex I and originating in Bosnia and
Herzegovina shall, at the time of entry into force of this Agreement, be free from
quantitative limits and measures of equivalent effect. Quantitative limits may
subsequently be introduced under conditions specified in Article 8.

Should quantitative limits be introduced, exports of the textile products made subject
to quantitative limits shall be subject to a double-checking system as specified in
Appendix A.

At the time of entry into force of this Agreement, exports of products listed in Annex
II, not subject to quantitative limits, shall be subject to the double-checking system
referred to in paragraph 2.

Following consultations in accordance with the procedures set out in Article 14,
exports of products in Annex I not subject to quantitative limits, other than those listed
in Annex II, may be subject, subsequently to the entry into force of this Agreement, to
the double-checking system referred to in paragraph 2 or to a prior surveillance system
introduced by the Community.

Article 4

The Community and Bosnia and Herzegovina recognise the special and differential character
of re-imports of textile products into the Community after processing in Bosnia and
Herzegovina as a specific form of industrial and trade cooperation.

Should quantitative limits be established under Article 8, provided that they are effected in
accordance with the regulations on economic outward processing in force in the Community,
these re-imports shall not be subject to these quantitative limits if they are subject to the
specific arrangements laid down in Annex III.

Article 5

Exports from Bosnia and Herzegovina of cottage-industry fabrics woven on hand- or foot-
operated looms, garments or other made-up articles obtained manually from such fabrics and
to the quantitative limits
of traditional folklore handicraft products shall not be subject

Article 6

Imports into the Community of textile products covered by this Agreement shall not
be subject to the quantitative limits established under this Agreement, provided that
they are declared to be for re-export outside the Community in the same state or after
processing, within the framework of the administrative system of control which exists
within the Community.

However, the release for home use of products imported into the Community under
the conditions referred to above shall be subject to the production of an export licence
issued by the authorities of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and to proof of origin in
accordance with the provisions of Appendix A.

Where the Community authorities ascertain that imports of textile products have been
set off against a quantitative limit established under this Agreement, but that the
products have subsequently been re-exported outside the Community, the authorities
shall inform the authorities of Bosnia and Herzegovina within four weeks of the
quantities involved and authorise imports of identical quantities of the same products,
the quantitative limit established under this
which shall not be set off against
Agreement for the current or the following year, as appropriate.

Article 7

Should quantitative limits be introduced under Article 8, the following provisions shall apply:

1.

2.

3.

In any Agreement year advance use of a portion of the quantitative limit established
for the following Agreement year is authorised for each category of products up to 5%
of the quantitative limit for the current Agreement year.

Amounts delivered in advance shall be deducted from the corresponding quantitative
limits established for the following Agreement year.

Carryover to the corresponding quantitative limit for the following Agreement year of
the amounts not used during any Agreement year is authorised for each category of
products up to 10% of the quantitative limit for the current Agreement year.

Transfers in respect of categories in group I shall not be made from any category
except as follows:

transfers between categories 1, 2 and 3 may be made up to 12% of the quantitative
limits for the category to which the transfer is made,

transfers between categories 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 may be made up to 12% of the
quantitative limit for the category to which the transfer is made.

Transfers into any category in groups II and III may be made from any category or
categories in groups I, II and III up to 12% of the quantitative limit for the category to
which the transfer is made.

The table of equivalence applicable to the transfers referred to above is given in
Annex I to this Agreement.

The increase in any category of products resulting from the cumulative application of
the provisions in paragraphs 1, 2 and 3 above during an Agreement year shall not
exceed 17%.

Prior notification shall be given by the authorities of Bosnia and Herzegovina in the
event of recourse to the provisions of paragraphs 1, 2 and 3 above, at least 15 days in
advance.

Article 8

Exports of textile products listed in Annex I may be made subject to quantitative limits
on the conditions laid down in the following paragraphs.

Where the Community finds, under the system of administrative control set up, that
the level of imports of products in a given category listed in Annex I originating in
Bosnia and Herzegovina exceeds, in relation to the preceding year’s total imports into
the Community from all sources of products in that category, the following rates:

2% for categories of products in Group I,

8% for categories of products in Group II,

15% for categories of products in Group III,

it may request
the opening of consultations in accordance with the procedure
described in Article 14, with a view to reaching agreement on an appropriate restraint
level for the products in such category.

Pending a mutually satisfactory solution, Bosnia and Herzegovina undertakes to limit
exports of the products concerned to the Community for a provisional period of three
months from the date on which the request for consultations is made.

Such provisional limit shall be established at 25% of the level of imports reached
during the calendar year preceding that in which imports exceeded the level resulting
from the application of the formula set out in paragraph 2, and gave rise to the request
for consultation, or 25% of the level resulting from the application of the formula set
out in paragraph 2, whichever is the higher.

Should the Contracting Parties be unable in the course of consultations to reach a
satisfactory solution within the period specified in Article 14, the Community shall
have the right to introduce a definitive quantitative limit at an annual level not lower
than the level resulting from the application of the formula set out in paragraph 2, or
106% of the level of imports reached during the calendar year preceding that in which
imports exceeded the level resulting from the application of the formula set out in
paragraph 2 and gave rise to the request for consultations, whichever is the higher.

The annual level so fixed shall be revised upwards after consultations in accordance
with the procedure referred to in Article 14, with a view to fulfilling the conditions set

out in paragraph 2, should the trend of total imports into the Community of the
product in question make this necessary.

The annual growth rate for the quantitative limits introduced under this Article shall
be determined in accordance with the provisions of Appendix C.

The provisions of this Article shall not apply where the percentages specified in
paragraph 2 have been reached as a result of a fall
imports into the
Community, and not as a result of an increase in exports of products originating in
Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Where the provisions of paragraph 2, 3 and 4 are applied, the Community shall
authorise the imports of products of the category concerned shipped from Bosnia and
Herzegovina before the request for consultations was submitted.

Should the provisions of paragraphs 2 or 4 be applied, Bosnia and Herzegovina
undertakes to issue export licences for products covered by contracts concluded before
the introduction of the quantitative limit, up to the volume of the quantitative limit
fixed.

Up to the date of communication of the statistics referred to in Article 9(6), the
provisions of paragraph 2 of this Article shall apply on the basis of the annual
statistics previously communicated by the Community.

Article 9

Bosnia and Herzegovina shall supply the Commission with precise statistical
information on all export licences issued for categories of textile products subject to
the quantitative limits established under this Agreement or to a double-checking
system, expressed in quantities and in terms of value and broken down by Member
States of the Community, as well as on all certificates issued by the competent
authorities of Bosnia and Herzegovina for products referred to in Article 5 and subject
to the provisions of Appendix B.

The Community shall likewise transmit to authorities of Bosnia and Herzegovina
precise statistical information on import authorisations issued by the Community
authorities and import statistics for products covered by the system referred to in
Article 8(2).

The information referred to above shall, for all categories of products, be forwarded
before the end of the month following the month to which the statistics relate.

Upon request by the Community, Bosnia and Herzegovina shall supply import
statistics for all products covered by Annex I.

Should it be found on analysis of the information exchanged that there are significant
discrepancies between the returns for exports and those for imports, consultations may
this
be initiated in accordance with the procedure specified in Article 14 of
Agreement.

provide the authorities of Bosnia and Herzegovina before 15 April of each year with
the preceding year’s statistics on imports of all textile products covered by this
Agreement, broken down by supplying country and Community Member State.

Article 10

With a view to ensuring the effective functioning of this Agreement, the Community
and Bosnia and Herzegovina agree to cooperate fully in order to prevent, to investigate
and to take any necessary legal and/or administrative action against circumvention by
transhipment, re-routing, false declaration concerning the country or place of origin,
falsification of documents, false declaration concerning fibre content, quantities,
description or classification of merchandise and by whatever other means.
Accordingly, Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Community agree to establish the
necessary legal provisions and administrative procedures permitting effective action to
be taken against such circumvention, which shall include the adoption of legally
binding corrective measures against exporters and/or importers involved.

Agreement
is being circumvented, the Community will consult with Bosnia and
Herzegovina with a view to reaching a mutually satisfactory solution. These
consultations will be held as early as possible and at the latest within 30 days from the
date of request.

Pending the results of the consultations referred to in paragraph 2, Bosnia and
Herzegovina shall, as a precautionary measure, if so requested by the Community,
take all necessary measures to ensure that, where sufficient evidence of circumvention
is provided, adjustments of quantitative limits established under Article 8 liable to be
agreed following the consultations referred to in paragraph 2 may be carried out for
the quota year in which the request
to open consultations in accordance with
paragraph 2 was made, or for the following year if the quota for the current year is
exhausted.

Should the Contracting Parties be unable, in the course of the consultation referred to
in paragraph 2, to reach a mutually satisfactory solution, the Community shall have
the right:

a)

b)

c)

Where there is sufficient evidence that products originating in Bosnia and
Herzegovina have been imported in circumvention of this Agreement, to set off
the relevant quantities against the quantitative limits established under Article 8;

Where sufficient evidence shows that false declaration concerning fibre
content, quantities, description or classification of products originating in Bosnia
and Herzegovina has occurred, to refuse to import the products in question;

Should it appear that the territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina is involved in
transhipment or re-routing of products not originating in Bosnia and Herzegovina,
to introduce quantitative limits against the same products originating in Bosnia
and Herzegovina if they are not already subject to quantitative limits, or to take
any other appropriate measures.

prevent and to address effectively all problems arising from circumvention in
accordance with the provisions of Appendix A of this Agreement.

surveillance into the Community. Should a sudden and prejudicial change in
traditional trade flows arise, the Community will be entitled to request consultations in
order to find a satisfactory solution to those problems. Such consultations must be held
within 15 working days of their being requested by the Community.

subject to quantitative limits into the Community are spaced out as evenly as possible
over the year, due account being taken in particular of seasonal factors.

arise in the Community due to a sharp and substantial increase, by comparison to the
preceding year, in imports of a given category of group I.

At the request of either of the Contracting Parties, consultations shall be held on any
problems arising from the application of this Agreement. Any consultations held under
this Article shall take place in a spirit of cooperation and with a desire to reconcile the

ADMINISTRATIVE COOPERATION

Article 17

The Community and Bosnia and Herzegovina shall cooperate closely in the implementation
of the provisions of this Appendix. To this end, contacts and exchanges of views, including on
technical matters, shall be facilitated by both Parties.

Article 18

In order to ensure the correct application of this Appendix, the Community and Bosnia and
Herzegovina offer mutual assistance for the checking of the authenticity and the accuracy of
export licences and certificates of origin issued or of any declarations made within the terms
of this Appendix.

Article 19

Bosnia and Herzegovina shall transmit to the Commission of the European Communities the
names and addresses of the authorities competent to issue and verify the export licences and
the certificates of origin, together with specimens of the stamps used by these authorities and
specimen signatures of officials responsible for signing the export licences and the certificates
of origin. Bosnia and Herzegovina shall also notify the Community of any change in this
information.

Article 20

1.

2.

Subsequent verification of certificates of origin or export licences shall be carried out
at random, or whenever the competent Community authorities have reasonable doubt
as to the authenticity of the certificate or licence or as to the accuracy of the
information regarding the true origin of the products in question.

In such cases, the competent authorities in the Community shall return the certificate
of origin or the export licence or a copy thereof to the competent authorities of Bosnia
and Herzegovina, giving, where appropriate, the reasons of form or substance which
justify an enquiry. If the invoice has been submitted, such invoice or a copy thereof
shall be attached to the certificate or to the licence or their copies. The authorities shall
also forward any information that has been obtained suggesting that the particulars
given on the said certificate or licence are inaccurate.

three months at the latest. The information communicates shall indicate whether the
disputed certificate, licence or declaration applies to the goods actually exported and
whether these goods are eligible for export under the arrangements established by this
Agreement. The information shall also include, at the request of the Community,
copies of all the documentation necessary to fully determine the facts, and in particular
the true origin of the goods.

Should such verifications reveal systematic irregularities in the use of declarations of
origin,

provisions of Article 2(1) of this Appendix.

the Community may subject

For the purpose of subsequent verification of certificates of origin, copies of the
certificates as well as any export documents referring to them shall be kept for at least
two years by the competent authorities of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Recourse to the random verification procedure specified in this Article must not
constitute an obstacle to the release for home use of the products in question.

Article 21

Where the verification procedure referred to in Article 20 of this Appendix or where
information available to the competent authorities of the Community or of Bosnia and
Herzegovina indicates or appears to indicate that the provisions of this Agreement are
being circumvented or infringed, the two Contracting Parties shall cooperate closely
and with the appropriate urgency in order to prevent any such circumvention or
infringement.

To this end, the competent authorities of Bosnia and Herzegovina shall, on their own
initiative or at the request of the Community, carry out appropriate inquiries, or
arrange for such inquiries to be carried out, concerning operations which are, or appear
to the Community to be, in circumvention or infringement of this Appendix. Bosnia
and Herzegovina shall communicate the results of these inquiries to the Community,
including any other pertinent information enabling the cause of the circumvention or
infringement, including the true origin of the goods to be determined.

By agreement between the Community and Bosnia and Herzegovina, officials
designated by the Community may be present at the inquiries referred to in paragraph
2.

In pursuance of the cooperation referred to in paragraph 1, the competent authorities
of the Community and Bosnia and Herzegovina shall exchange any information
considered by either Contracting Party to be of use in preventing circumvention or
infringement of the provisions of this Agreement. These exchanges may include
information on the production of textile products in Bosnia and Herzegovina and on
