HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Regulation (EEC) No 3030/93 is hereby amended as follows:

1. Article 1 is amended as follows:

(a) paragraph 1 shall be replaced by the following:

According to the ATC,
importing countries are not
obliged to accept shipments in excess of the restrictions
notified;
in accordance with Community legislation the
date of shipment is therefore considered to be the deter-
mining date for charging against
the relevant quota.
Consequently, goods arriving in 2005 but shipped in
2004 have, during a transitional period in 2005, to be
charged against the 2004 quotas and do therefore remain
subject to the system of double checking.

‘1. Without prejudice to Article 2 (5) and to Article
13, this Regulation shall apply to imports of textile
products
listed in Annex I, originating in third
countries with which the Community has concluded
bilateral agreements, protocols or other arrangements
as listed in Annex II. The relevant provisions of this
Regulation shall also apply to imports of textile and
clothing products originating in China in respect of
Article 10a.’;
