                                   Proposal for a
                                 COUNCIL DECISION
    authorizing the automatic renewal or continuance in force of certain
        friendship, trade and navigation treaties and similar agreements
            concluded between Member States and non-member countries
                   (submitted to the Council by the Commission)
 C O M (83) 622 final

The purpose of the attached draft proposal for a Council Decision is to
authorize the renewal or continuance in force under Council Decision
69/494/EEC of 19 December 1969 of certain fr iendship treaties and similar
agreements concluded by Member States which are due to expire on 31
December 1984.
The French authorities had omitted to include the Convention d'établissement
et de navigation with Canada, signed in Ottawa on 12 May 1933, in the list
for extension beyond 31 December 1979. France has now requested authorization
to renew the trade provisions of that Convention again, and the proposal
accordingly provides for this (though in fact the Convention has remained in
force, since neither France nor Canada has denounced it).
To repair the effects of the earlier omission, it is necessary to provide
that the provisions in qu estion may be renewed au to matically or maintained
in force as from 1 Ja nuary 1980.
A general point: since the denu nci at ion period for some treaties is one year
the Council should take the decision by 31 December of this year renewing
them until 31 December 1985.
The proposal takes account of the fact that the Commission is holding
consultations with Member States with a vi ew of fo rmulating a new approach
to this matter.

Authorizing the automatic renewal or continuance in force of certain
friendship, trade and na vigation treaties and similar agreements
concluded between Member States and non-member countries
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Tr ea ty es ta blishing the European Economic Community, and
in particular Article 113 thereof,
having regard to Council Decision 69/494/EEC of 16 December 1969 on the pr o ­
gressive standardization of Agreements concerning commercial relations between
Member States and third countries and on the negotiation of Community agree­
ments (1), and in particular Article 3 thereof,
having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas the automatic renewal or continuance in force of the friendship, trade
and navigation treaties and similar agreements concluded by Member States was
last authorized by Decision 83/30/EEC (2);
whereas the Member States concerned have again requested authorization for the
automatic renewal or continuance in force of provisions governing matters
covered by the common commercial policy within the me aning of Article 113 of
the Treaty and contained in the friendship, trade and navigation treaties and
similar agreements listed in the Annex, in order to avoid interrupting their
commercial relations with the non-member countries concerned as based on such
agreements;
whereas in particular, France has asked that the automatic renewal or
continuance in force of the trade provisions of its Convention d'établissement
et de navigation with Canada, signed on 12 May 1933, be again authorized, the
French authorities having om itted to request such renewal or continuance in
force beyond 31 December 1979;
whereas most of the matters covered by the provisions of national treaties and
agreements will in future be governed by Community agreements; whereas au th ori­
zation should be given only in respect of matters not covered by Community
agreements; whereas such authorization does not, therefore, absolve the Member
States from the ob ligation of avoiding and, where appropriate, eliminating any
incompatibility between such treaties and agreements and the provisions of
Community law;
(1) OJ NO L 326, 29.12.1969, p. 39.
(2) OJ NO L 32, 03.02.1983, p. 29.
 ---pagebreak---                                     - ? -
whereas the provisions of the treaties and agreements to be automatically
renewed or maintained in force must not, furthermore, during the period under
consideration, constitute an obstacle to the implementation of the common
commercial policy;
whereas the Member States concerned have stated that the automatic renewal or
continuance in force of these treaties and agreements would not be such as to
constitute an obstacle to the op ening of Communi ty commercial negotiations
with the relevant non-member countries; whereas they are willing to transfer
the commercial fields covered by current bilateral agreements to such Community
agreements as it is proposed to negotiate;
whereas, at the conclusion of the consultation provided for in Article 2 of
Decision 69/494/EEC, it was established, as the aforesaid statements by the
Member States confirm, that the relevant treaties and bilateral agreements
will not, during the period under consideration, constitute an obstacle to the
implementation of the common commercial policy;
whereas, nevertheless, the Member States concerned have stated that they would
be willing to adapt and, if necessary, terminate those treaties and agreements
should it be found, during the period under consideration, that the automatic
renewal or continuance in force of the provisions thereof relating to matters
covered by Article 113 of the Tr ea ty hinder the implementation of the common
commercial policy;
Whereas the treaties and agreements involved contain termination clauses
requiring a period of notice of between three and twelve months;
whereas, therefore, there is no reason for not authorizing the automatic renewal
or continuance in force, until 31 December 1985 of the provisions in question;
whereas in view of the error which has been made, the relevant provisions of the
Convention d'établissement et de navigation be tween France and Canada may be
au tomatically renewed or continued in force with effect from 1 January 1980,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION :
                                        Article 1
1. The provisions g o ve rni ng ma tters covered by the common commercial policy
    within the meaning of Article 113 of the Treaty and contained in the fr ie nd­
    ship, trade and navigation treaties and similar agreements listed in the
    Annex hereto may be a u t o mat ic all y renewed or maintained in force until
    31 December 1985 as regards those areas not covered by agreements between
    the Community and the non-member countries concerned in so far as they are not
    contrary to existing common policies.
 2. The relevant provisi on of the Convention d' ét ablissement et de navigation
    between France and Canada signed on 12 May 1933 may be automatically renewed
    or maintai ne d in force as pr ovided for in paragraph 1 with effect from
    1 January 1980.
                                        Article 2
 This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
