 ---pagebreak---                          EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
The Interim Agreements between               the European Economic
Community and Egypt , Jordan, the Lebanon and Syria provide ,
from the date of their coming into force,          for the total
suspension of customs duties for goods originating in these
countries and imported into the Community .
Notwithstanding this provision, special arrangements are laid
down for a certain number of sensitive products : annual ceilings
may be imposed on the volume of such products . When a ceiling
is reached the Community may reintroduce until the end of the
calendar year the customs duties applicable for the goods in
question to third countries .
 The initial volumes . of the annual ceilings operative for 1977 are
 fixed by the Agreements themselves . The ceilings are to be
•fixed annually and their levels increased by 5% . They will
 be abolished not later than       December 1979 .
The operation of the ceiling arrangements and the power to reintroduce
customs duties will necessarily require the adoption of detailed
common rules to be applied uniformly by all Member States .      *. his can
take the form of a Community system of supervision of actual imports
from the partner State * To this end , the Member States should take
appropriate measures to permit the rapid collection of statistical
returns for the whole Community . In this connection only imports o /
the products in question should be taken into account , as . and when
they are submitted to the customs authorities under cover of o
declaration of entry lot home use and accompanied by a movement
certificate conforming to the ifulea contained in the Agreements
referred to under 1 .

       These returns are to be made up by each Member State at the end of
      every month and forwarded before the fifteenth day of the" following     4
      month to the Commission so as to enable the latter to communicate          t
      by telex to all the Member States an overall , product-by-product ,
      statement for * the preceding month of the imports in question .   The
      system of supervision will require of the responsible departments of
      the Member States and the Commission diligence and close . cooperation .
      In view of the fact that the products concerned are sensitive products
     and that duty free imports in excess of the ceilings could cause
     disturbance of the Community market » it is absolutely essential that
     all Member States respect rigorously the fifteenth-day time limit
     referred to above .
                                                                         V
                                                'I
    The following procedure is to.be adoptee* for setting in train machinery
. to reintroduce duties s if one of the overall monthly statements drawn
    up by the Commission reveals that 75% of the ceiling fixed for a given
    product has been reached , the Member States would be informed and consul­
    tations could be held , in particular in the Working Party on Economic
    Tariff Problems , either at the request of a Member State or the Commission 's
    initiative. The aim of these consultations would be to examine, case by
    case, whether or not the customs duties applicable to non-member countries
    should be reintroduced once the target ceiling is actually reached .
 . Monthly returns would still be made in respect of imports of the product
   in question or, if the Commission so requested, it vould be notified by
   MUX of such imports every ten day,. In the Utter caae, the time limit
   for forwarding the information would be five days. , ■              '
   In thi. way, the Commission would be able to take, within the shortest
  possible time, measures leading to the ^introduction by Regulation. of
  custom, duties in respect of the partner State which would apply until
  the end of the calendar year. In the abo»e hypothesis, the reintroduc­
  tion of the customs duties on the product under consideration would,
 naturally, be effected within a time limit fixed by the Regulation putting
 « end to the exemption of duties provided1 for in the Agreements in
 question !
                                                                  • • »/• • •

       3,   As far as application of the rule on ceilings and reintroduction of
            duties is concerned , the attached proposal makes provision for the

            The proposed Regulation does no more than outline how these powers
V          are to be exercised so that , in consultation with the Member States ,
            the machinery to be set in train may be adapted flexibly and rapidly .
            It is with the same view to maximum efficiency and rapidity that the
           proposed Regulation provides that the Commission would be responsible for
           reintroducing , in respect of Che partner State , the duties applicable to
    ,      non-member countries *                 ,
