                                                   POSTUPY A ZAHRNUTÉ PRODUKTY

            Každý člen Svetovej obchodnej organizácie alebo štát, alebo samostatné colné územie v prístupovom procese do WTO sa môže
            podieľať na rozvoji svetového obchodu s produktmi informačných technológií podľa nasledovných pravidiel:

            1.   Každý účastník začlení opatrenia opísané v odseku 2 deklarácie do svojej listiny colných koncesií k Všeobecnej dohode
                 o clách a obchode 1994 a okrem toho buď do svojej vlastnej colnej úrovne, alebo do harmonizovaného systému (1996)
                 („HS“) na šesťmiestnej úrovni v rámci svojich oficiálnych sadzieb alebo akýchkoľvek iných zverejnených verzií colného
                 sadzobníka, ktorý obvykle používajú dovozcovia a vývozcovia. Každý účastník, ktorý nie je členom WTO, vykoná tieto
                 opatrenia na autonómnom základe, v nadväznosti na očakávaný prístup do WTO, a začlení tieto opatrenia do svojej listiny
                 colných koncesií.

            2.   V tejto súvislosti každý účastník čo najskôr a najneskôr 1. marca 1997 poskytne všetkým ostatným účastníkom doklad
                 obsahujúci a) podrobné údaje týkajúce sa toho, ako sa bude zaobchádzať s clom pri jeho zahrnutí do listiny colných koncesií
                 WTO a b) zoznam presných názvov položiek HS pre produkty uvedené v dodatku B. Tieto dokumenty sa preskúmajú
                 a schvália na základe konsenzu a tento proces skúmania sa ukončí najneskôr 1. apríla 1997. Hneď po ukončení tohto
                 procesu skúmania všetkých takýchto dokumentov sa tento doklad predloží ako modifikácia k listine colných koncesií
                 príslušného účastníka v súlade s rozhodnutím z 26. marca 1980 o postupoch modifikácií a korekcií listín colných koncesií
                 (BISCD 27S/25).

                 a) Koncesie, ktoré majú byť navrhnuté každým účastníkom vo forme modifikácií jeho listiny colných koncesií, viažu
                    a eliminujú všetky colné sadzby a ostatné poplatky akéhokoľvek druhu pre produkty informačných technológií
                    nasledovne:

                    i) odstránenie takýchto colných sadzieb sa vykoná prostredníctvom rovnomernej redukcie sadzby okrem toho, ak by
                       sa účastníci dohodli inak. Pokiaľ sa účastníci nedohodli inak, každý účastník viaže všetky clá pre položky uvedené
                       v dodatkoch najneskôr 1. júla 1997 a prvé takéto zníženie sadzby sa uskutoční najneskôr do 1. júla 1997, druhé
                       takéto zníženie sadzby najneskôr do 1. januára 1998 a tretie takéto zníženie sadzby najneskôr do 1. januára 1999,
                       pričom úplné odstránenie colných sadzieb sa vykoná najneskôr do 1. januára 2000. Účastníci súhlasia
                       s podporovaním autonómneho odstraňovania colných sadzieb pred stanovenými dátumami. Znížená sadzba sa
                       bude v každej etape zaokrúhľovať na prvé desatinné miesto a

                    ii) odstraňovanie takýchto ostatných sadzieb a poplatkov akéhokoľvek druhu, v zmysle článku II:1 písm. b) Všeobecnej
                        dohody, sa ukončí do 1. júla 1997, pokiaľ nebude v doklade účastníka poskytnutého ostatným účastníkom
                        na preskúmanie stanovené niečo iné.

                 b) Modifikácie listiny colných koncesií, navrhnuté účastníkom na účel vykonania viazania a odstraňovania ciel pre
                    produkty informačných technológií, majú dosiahnuť nasledovné:

                    i) v prípade položiek HS uvedených v dodatku A, vytvorením tam, kde je to vhodné, nižšieho členenia v listine colných
                       koncesií na národnej úrovni colnej položky a

                    ii) v prípade produktov uvedených v dodatku B, pripojením prílohy k tejto listine colných koncesií, vrátane všetkých
                        produktov v dodatku B, ktorá má uvádzať podrobné názvy položiek HS pre tieto produkty na národnej úrovni alebo
                        na 6-miestnej úrovni HS.

                    Každý účastník urýchlene modifikuje svoj národný colný sadzobník tak, aby odrážal navrhované zmeny hneď po ich
                    vstupe do platnosti.

            3.   Účastníci sa stretávajú pravidelne pod záštitou Rady pre obchod s tovarom na účel preskúmania pokrytia produktov
                 uvedených v dodatkoch s cieľom odsúhlasiť modifikácie dodatkov konsenzom, vzhľadom k technologickému rozvoju,
                 skúsenostiam s uplatňovaním colných koncesií alebo zmenám v nomenklatúre HS, či sa majú dodatky zmeniť tak, aby
                 zahŕňali dodatočné produkty a prediskutovať netarifné prekážky obchodu s produktmi informačných technológií. Takéto
                 konzultácie sa vykonávajú bez toho, aby to malo dopad na práva a povinnosti podľa dohôd WTO.

            4.   Účastníci sa stretnú, len čo to bude vhodné a v každom prípade najneskôr 1. apríla 1997 na účel preskúmania stavu prijatých
                 akceptácií a posúdenia záverov, ktoré boli na jeho základe vypracované. Účastníci vykonajú činnosti predpokladané
 ---pagebreak--- 8            SK                                       Úradný vestník Európskej únie                                                     11/zv. 26

         v deklarácii za podmienky, že účastníci zastupujúci približne 90 percent svetového obchodu (1) s produktmi informačných
         technológií oznámili dovtedy svoju akceptáciu a za podmienky, že účastníci súhlasili so stanovením jednotlivých etáp. Pri
         posudzovaní, či vykonať činnosti predpokladané v deklarácii, ak podiel účastníkov na svetovom obchode s produktmi
         informačných technológií poklesne pod 90 %, účastníci môžu zohľadniť rozsah účasti štátov alebo samostatných colných
         území predstavujúcich pre nich podstatný objem ich vlastného obchodu s takýmito výrobkami. Na tomto stretnutí účastníci
         stanovia, či boli splnené kritériá.

    5.   Účastníci sa stretnú tak často, ako je to potrebné a najneskôr 30. septembra 1997, aby zvážili akúkoľvek rozdielnosť názorov
         medzi nimi pri klasifikácii produktov informačných technológií, začínajúc produktmi uvedenými v dodatku B. Účastníci
         súhlasia so spoločným cieľom, dosiahnuť tam, kde je to vhodné, spoločnú klasifikáciu pre tieto produkty v rámci existujúcej
         nomenklatúry HS so zohľadnením výkladov a pravidiel Rady pre colnú spoluprácu (tiež známa ako Svetová colná
         organizácia alebo „WCO“). V každom prípade, ak pretrvá rozdielnosť názorov na klasifikáciu, účastníci zvážia, či sa má
         vykonať spoločný návrh Rade pre colnú spoluprácu, pokiaľ ide o existujúcu nomenklatúru HS alebo vyriešenie rozdielnosti
         názorov vo výklade nomenklatúry HS.

    6.   Účastníci berú na vedomie, že článok XXIII Všeobecnej dohody o clách a obchode obsahuje otázku zrušenia alebo
         obmedzenia výhod vyplývajúcich priamo alebo nepriamo pre účastníka, člena WTO, prostredníctvom vykonania tejto
         deklarácie v dôsledku uplatňovania iným účastníkom, členom WTO, akéhokoľvek opatrenia bez ohľadu na to, či toto
         opatrenie je, alebo nie je v rozpore s ustanoveniami Všeobecnej dohody o clách a obchode.

    7.   Každý účastník venuje náležitú pozornosť každej žiadosti o konzultáciu od akéhokoľvek iného účastníka týkajúcu sa
         opatrení uvedených vyššie. Tieto konzultácie nemajú dopad na práva a povinnosti podľa dohôd WTO.

    8.   Účastníci konajúci pod záštitou Rady pre obchod s tovarom informujú ostatné členské štáty WTO a štáty alebo osobitné
         colné územia v prístupovom procese do WTO o týchto postupoch a iniciujú konzultácie s cieľom uľahčiť ich účasť na rozvoji
         obchodu s produktmi informačných technológií na základe deklarácie.

    9.   Výraz „účastník“, ako je použitý pri týchto postupoch, znamená tých členov WTO alebo štáty, alebo samostatné colné
         územia v prístupovom procese do WTO, ktoré poskytnú doklad opísaný v odseku 2 najneskôr do 1. marca 1997.

    10. Táto príloha je otvorená na prijatie všetkými členmi WTO a akýmkoľvek štátom alebo akýmkoľvek samostatným colným
        územím v prístupovom procese do WTO. Akceptácie sa oznamujú písomne generálnemu riaditeľovi, ktorý ich oznámi
        všetkým účastníkom.

    Príloha má dva dodatky.

    V dodatku A sa uvádza zoznam názvov položiek HS alebo ich častí, ktoré majú byť zahrnuté.

    V dodatku B sa uvádzajú osobitné produkty zahrnuté do ITA rôzne klasifikovaných v HS.

    (1) Toto percento vypočíta sekretariát WTO na základe najnovších údajov, ktoré sú k dispozícii v čase stretnutia.

            Establishment of the Committee of Participants

            3. In order to carry out the provisions of paragraphs 3, 5, 6 and 7 of the Annex to the Declaration, the participants
            established a Committee of Participants on the Expansion of Trade in Information Technology Products
            (hereinafter referred to as „Committee“). The Committee shall oversee the functioning of these elements and shall
            serve as the forum for meetings required under its procedures and collective consultations among the participants.
            All decisions of the Committee shall be taken by consensus.

            4. Membership in the Committee shall be open to representatives of all participants. The Committee shall elect
            a chairperson from among the representatives of the participants or as otherwise decided. The Committee may
            decide to invite, as appropriate, representatives of WTO Members and of observers to the Council for Trade in
            Goods that are not participants as of 26 March 1997 to attend meetings of the Committee as observers.

            5. The participants agreed that any WTO Member, or State or separate customs territory in the process of acceding
            to the WTO, that is not a participant as of 26 March 1997, and that notifies the Committee of its interest in binding
            and eliminating customs duties, and other duties and charges, on the importation of information technology
            products into its territory pursuant to these elements, may become a participant on terms to be agreed between
            it and the participants at that time. Unless otherwise agreed, such WTO Member, or separate customs territory in
            the process of acceding to the WTO, shall, on the date that it becomes a participant, make effective all rate
            reductions it would have undertaken had it been a participant as of 26 March 1997.

            6. The participants agreed that the Committee shall hold regular meetings to review developments related to the
            implementation of the Declaration, and shall hold special meetings at the request of any participant or as otherwise
            necessary by invitation of the chairperson. The first regular meeting of the Committee shall be held no later than
            30 September 1997. The Committee shall consider at that meeting the schedule of future regular meetings, taking
            account of the meetings provided for in paragraph 7 below.

            Process for monitoring implementation and consultations on and review of product coverage

            7. The participants agreed that, in conducting the consultations and review described in paragraph 3 of the Annex
            to the Declaration (1), the Committee may also take into account changes in patterns in trade in information
            technology products. The participants expressed their intent to conduct the initial review and any consultations
            pursuant to paragraph 3 of the Annex to the Declaration according to the procedures attached hereto.

            8. The participants also agreed that, in conducting the consultations described in paragraph 5 of the Annex to the
            Declaration (2), the Committee may consider product classification divergences with a view to ensuring that the
            actions foreseen in the Declaration are implemented in a coherent fashion by all participants.

            (1) The text of paragraph 3 is as follows:
                „Participants shall meet periodically under the auspices of the Council on Trade in Goods to review the product coverage
                specified in the Attachments, with a view to agreeing, by consensus, whether in the light of technological developments,
                experience in applying the tariff concessions, or changes to the HS nomenclature, the Attachments should be modified to
                incorporate additional products, and to consult on non-tariff barriers to trade in information technology products. Such
                consultations shall be without prejudice to rights and obligations under the WTO Agreement.“
            (2) The text of paragraph 5 is as follows:
                „Participants shall meet as often as necessary and no later than 30 September 1997 to consider any divergence among them
                in classifying information technology products, beginning with the products specified in Attachment B. Participants agree
                on the common objective of achieving, where appropriate, a common classification for these products within existing HS
                nomenclature, giving consideration to interpretations and rulings of the Customs Cooperation Council (also known as the
                World Customs Organization or ‚WCO‘). In any instance in which a divergence in classification remains, participants will
                consider whether a joint suggestion could be made to the WCO with regard to updating existing HS nomenclature or
                resolving divergence in interpretation of the HS nomenclature.“

     GATT 1994 Article XXVIII

     9. The participants agreed that any participant that is a WTO Member having recourse to the provisions of Article
     XXVIII of the GATT 1994 with respect to the possible modification or withdrawal of a concession included in its
     WTO schedule of tariff concessions, as modified pursuant to these procedures, shall so notify the other participants
     at the time that it notifies the Director-General of the WTO. Upon the request of any participant, the Committee
     shall convene a meeting within 30 days of the circulation of the notification to consider the potential impact of
     the proposed modification or withdrawal of the concession on the trade of other participants in information
     technology products. Such deliberations shall be without prejudice to rights and obligations under the WTO
     Agreement.

     10. The participants agreed that, in light of the technical specificity of information technology products,
     participants may wish to consider, in the course of the review provided for in paragraph 3 of the Annex to the
     Declaration, additional procedures to address the concerns of small- and medium-sized exporting participants
     regarding their rights under Article XXVIII, bearing in mind that a review will be conducted by the Council for Trade
     in Goods five years from the date of entry into force of the WTO Agreement pursuant to paragraph 1 of the
     Understanding on the Interpretation of Article XXVIII of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade 1994.

     Incorporation of the Annex to the Declaration

     11. The participants agreed that the modalities set forth in the Annex to the Declaration, including the
     Attachments to that Annex, are an integral part of these elements.

            PROCEDURES FOR CONSULTATIONS ON AND REVIEW OF PRODUCT COVERAGE

            Pursuant to paragraph 7 above, it is the intention of the participants to conduct the initial review and any
            consultations pursuant to paragraph 3 of the Annex to the Declaration according to the following schedule:

            (a) Beginning 1 October 1997 and no later than 31 December 1997, participants may submit to the Committee
                lists of additional information technology products for possible additional tariff concessions, including
                supporting technical documentation to facilitate consideration by the Committee, taking into account
                paragraph 5 of the Annex to the Declaration regarding classification issues. Such lists shall be circulated to all
                participants.

            (b) Beginning 1 January 1998 and no later than 31 March 1998, participants that have submitted the
                documentation described in paragraph (a) above shall consult upon request with interested participants to
                clarify information and exchange views on the documentation submitted, including technical specifications of
                the products covered in such documentation.

                Annex to the Declaration, and if so, to establish a revised list of products with respect to which participants
                would bind and eliminate customs duties and other duties and charges. Such list would replace Attachment
                A or B.

            (d) If the Committee decides to establish a revised list pursuant to paragraph (c), then each participant shall submit
                no later than 1 September 1998 a document similar to that required under paragraph 2 of the Annex to the
                Declaration.

            (e) The Committee shall meet no later than 15 September 1998 to conduct a review of these documents in
                a manner similar to that conducted pursuant to paragraph 2 of the Annex to the Declaration, and shall conclude
                its review no later than 30 September 1998. At that meeting participants shall also consider the possibility and
                procedures for further reviews.

            (f) Upon successful completion of the Committee review, the participants shall submit to the Secretariat the
                documents incorporating the results of the review as proposed modifications to their WTO schedules of tariff
                concessions, pursuant to the Decision of 26 March 1980 on Procedures for Modification and Rectification of
                Schedules of Tariff Concessions (BISD, 27S/25), with a view to the entry into force of the revised schedules,
                and incorporation in their domestic tariff schedules, no later than 1 January 1999 bearing in mind the need
                of each participant to fulfil its domestic procedural requirements. Each participant that is not a Member of the
                WTO shall implement these measures on an autonomous basis, pending completion of its WTO accession, and
                shall incorporate these measures into its WTO schedule on goods.
