27 March 1975 ( 1 ) on unilateral import arrangements in respect of State-
trading countries the Federal Republic of Germany has submitted the following
request for the modification of its quota for the importation from Romania of
panels of reconstituted wood ( CCT ex 44.18 ).
2.          The following observations may be made in connection with these
requests . The products in question are subject to quantitative restrictions
only in the Federal Republic of Germany and in Italy . In these circumstances ,
the modification of this quota which has been requested by Italy would not
seem to pose any particular economic problems , and could have been approved by
the Commission in accordance with the usual procedure .
3.          However , in view of the trade negotiations , authorised by the Council
being carried on with Romania ( agreement on industrial products ), under the
first indent of Article 7 of Decision 75 / 210 , only the Council can at the moment
approve these measures .   1
4.          The Commission therefore proposes that the Council :
    - adopt the decision , the draft of which is annexed hereto ;
    - authorise its publication in the Official Journal of the European
      Communities .
