1.     By its regulation ( EEC ) No 3707 / 86 of 24 November 1986 ( 1 ) the Council
       has suspended , on an autonomous basis , Common Customs tariff duties
       for certain aircraft products .      These duty suspensions will expire on
        31 December 1987 .
2.     The subject of the following draft regulation is the temporary
       suspension of duties in the Common Customs Tariff for a number of
       products intended for use in the construction , maintenance and repair
       of aircraft , as requested by the Member States . It consists partly of
       a prolongation of existing measures and partly of new measures , with
       certain headings and sub-headings of the Combined Nomenclature being
       regrouped in order to widen the scope of the suspensions to cover all
       aircraft , thus eliminating the present discrimination against certain
       aircraft ( see the proposal for a draft Regulation annexed ).
3.     Among the requests that are presented by Member States it seems
       appropriate to the Commission that for the goods listed in the Annex
       to this Regulation , a duty suspension is justified .      The Commission
       thereby takes into consideration the interests of the aircraft
       companies and of the Community industries , for those products where
       Community production is unsufficient or non-existent . In so doing ,
       the Commission is looking for the right balance between the interests
       of the producers and those of the users within the Community .        It
       also takes into account the need to protect employment .
       The proposed measures are confined to six months because of the
       difficulties of estimating the evolution of the basic factors .
4.     Attention is drawn to the fact that the Council Resolution of
       27.6.1974 simplifying the task of the customs administrations ( 0J No C
       79 of 8.7.1974 , p. 1 ) requires the publication of the attached
       Regulation at least six weeks before its entry into force .

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES ,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community ,
and in particular Article 28 thereof ,
Having regard to the Act of Accession of Spain , and in particular Article
32 thereof ,
Having regard to the proposal submitted by the Commission ,
Whereas Regulation ( EEC ) No 3707 /86 ( 1 ) of 24 November 1986 temporarily
suspending the autonomous Common Customs Tariff duties for certain products
intended for use in the construction , maintenance and repair of aircraft
provided for the suspension of duties laid down in the Common Customs
Tariff for certain number of products which are intended to be incorporated
in the construction , maintenance and repair of aircraft ; all these
suspension measures will expire on 31 December 1987 y
Whereas production of the goods is at present inadequate or non-existent
within the Community and producers are thus unable to meet the needs of
user industries in the Community ;
Whereas , talcing account of the difficulties involved in accurately
assessing the development of the economic situation in the sectors
concerned in the near future , these suspension measures should be taken
only temporarily with their term of validity fixed to six months to
coincide with the interests of Community production .
Whereas , on account of the suspensions concerned , there is a need to take
measures to maintain the Community preference , pursuant to Article 32 of
the Act of Accession of Spain y whereas in consequence the duties under
suspension should be considered as basic duties in the terms of paragraph 1
of Article 30 of the said Act y
