 ---pagebreak---                                   EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM                  C?W\ 5
1 . In the third quarter of this year the Commission , with the assistance of
     the Economic Tariff Problems Group , examined all the requests sent in by
     the Member States for temporary suspension of Common Customs Tariff duties ,
     including the requests for the renewal of suspensions at present in force .
2 . The proposal for a Regulation for the suspension of autonomous Common
     Customs Tariff duties on agricultural products has already been sent to the
     Council .        The   attached   proposal   covers   products intenaea TOT t ^ e
     construction , maintenance and repair of aircraft . The proposal concerning
     other industrial products is being drawn up .           It will shortly be sent to
     the Council .
3 . As in the case of agricultural products ,             the principle followed when
     examining the requests for suspension relating to aircraft was to grant
     total suspension where Community production of the product in question is
     minimal or non-existent , and partial suspension where Community production
     only partially caters for Community requirements . For the latter , the rate
     of suspension varies according to the supply possibilities open to users
     within the Community .
     In this way the Commission seeks to keep a balance between the interests of
     producers , users and consumers .
     Moreover ,      the need to safeguard jobs within the Community has been
     constantly borne in mind .
 4 . Given the criteria listed above ,        the Commission feels that suspension of
      djty is justified only for those products li-sted in the Annex to the attached
     draft Regulation . In the present case; a pure and simple prolongation of
     existing suspensions is sought .
 5 . As stated in Article 1 of the draft Regulation ,             the proposal is for a
     period limited to twelve months .
 6 . Particular attention is drawn to the fact that , in order to comply with the
      Council Resolution of 27 June 1974 concerning measures to be taken with a
     view to simplifying            the task of         the Customs      administrations
      ( OJ C 79 of 8.7.1974 , p.1 ), this Regulation must be published at least six
      weeks before coming into force .
