                            EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
1. The Council Regulation establishing autonomous arrangements for imports
   of textile products from Taiwan expires on 31 December 1991.
2. In the light of overall Community commercial policy for textiles, the
   import arrangements for Taiwan should be maintained.
   Since 1982, with regard to trade in textiles, the economic provisions
   and duration of the Community arrangements for Taiwan have been no
   different than those for equivalent suppliers (Hong Kong, South Korea),
   and the Regulation should therefore have carried over 1991 arrangements
   into 1992 unchanged, as had been decided for other MFA suppliers.
3. However, on 1 April 1991, Taiwan brought In liberalized arrangements for
   alcohol and spirits which discriminate against the Community. The tax
    level for whiskies from the Community is double that for other whiskies
   (United States). In addition, liberalization for other spirits,
    including brandies, will not occur until 1 September 1992. In order to
   exert pressure on the Taiwanese authorities, as in 1987, and in
   accordance with the information given to them several months ago, it is
   proposed that the original quotas for 1992 be reduced by 5%.
4. If Taiwan returns to a situation of non-discrimination, the quotas
    initially estabIished for 1992 will be restored as soon as possible.
5. The attached draft Regulation amends Regulation (EEC) No 4134/86, 1 with
   the aim of extending its validity and laying down quantitative limits
   for 1992.
6. The Commission is accordingly requested to adopt the attached draft
   Regulation before 1 January 1992.

                                    of
                     amending Regulation (EEC) No 4134/86
         on the arrangements for imports of certain textile products
                             originating in Taiwan
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community
and in particular Article 113 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 4134/86 of 22 December 1986 on the
arrangements for imports of certain textile products originating in
Taiwan,1 as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3059/90,2 a I locates
shares of the Community quantitative quotas on imports and lays down the
arrangements for imports into the Community of the products in question up
to 31 December 1991 ;
Whereas the arrangements should be maintained beyond that date and
adjusted as part of the revision of overall Community commercial policy
for textile products;
Whereas in the light of the continuing uncertainty surrounding the
treatment Taiwan applies to products originating in the Community, 1992
quotas should be set at the levels laid down in Annex II-, whereas these
levels may, however, be adjusted to take account of changes in the
situation and restore the quotas originally established;
Whereas, in order to ensure the best possible utilization of the Community
quantitative limits, they should be allocated in accordance with the
requirements of the Member States; whereas, however, the extent of the
disparities existing in the conditions for importation of these products
into the Member States and the particularly sensitive position of the
Community textiles industry mean that the said conditions can be
standardized only gradually; whereas, for these reasons, allocation of
supplies cannot immediately be effected on the basis of requirements
alone; whereas the Member States' shares of the Community quantitative
limits for 1992 should be estabIished;
Whereas the import arrangements currently in force expire on 31 December
1991-, whereas it is necessary to provide for transitional arrangements in
respect of products shipped before 1 January 1992;

Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 4134/86 should be amended in order to maintain
its provisions in force, and whereas Annex II to that Regulation should be
amended in order to lay down the quantitative limits for 1992,

                                  Article 1

    of products of the categories listed in Annex I shall be governed by the
    provisions of this Regulation."
2. Article 2(1) and 2(4) are replaced by the following:
    "1. For 1992, imports into the Community of textile products listed in
    Annex II and originating in Taiwan shall be subject to quantitative
    quotas broken down in a manner which will bring about an orderly
    expansion and development of the market for textiles and a gradual
    adjustment to the supply needs of the markets, allowing for carry-over
    and advance drawing between one year and another and for transfers
    between categories.
    The quotas for the period from 1 January to 31 December 1992 are shown
     in Annex II."
    "4. After 1 January 1992, the release for free circulation in the
    Community of the products covered by this Regulation shall be subject to
    the import arrangements in force before that date provided the products
    were loaded in Taiwan before 1 January 1992."
 3. Article 2(7), 2(8) and 2(9), added by Regulation (EEC) No 1653/88,3 are
