                    EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
                                                1
1 . In January 1982 , the Commission imposed a provisional anti-dumping
duty on mechanical wrist-watches originating in the USSR . This duty
is currently due to expire not later than 16 May 1982 .
2.     Following the introduction of the duty the two principal interested
parties ( the UK importer ' and the UK producer ) requested , and were
granted , hearings at which a number of arguments were presented to the
Commission 's services which are being followed up with additional detailed
information .
3.    The Commission does not consider that this information can be given
adequate consideration within the present life of the provisional duty .
The USSR exporter was consequently advised by letter of the Commission 's
intention to propose an extension of the provisional duty .       The exporter
has now informed the Commission ( via the Belgian importer ) that he is
agreeable to this extension .
4.    It is consequently proposed that the Council decide , in accordance
with Article 11 of Regulation ( EEC ) N° 3017/79^, to extend for a period
not exceeding two months the provisional duty imposed by Commission
Regulation ( EEC ) N° 84 / 82 .
                                                                             *
