                           COUNCIL REGULATION ( EEC )

   Council Regulation ( EEC ) N° 3059 / 78 of 21 December . 1978, laying
  down common rules for imports into the Community of certain textile
  products originating in . certain third countries , provides for a
  procedure enabling the Commission acting on the opinion of the
  Textile Committee to administer the textile agreements with such ,
  thi rd countries .  .         '
  In connection with the discussions in the Council on a Commission
  proposal ( C0M(79)468 ) put forward on August 10 1979 within the
  framework of that procedure ( the matter not having been settled
  at the level of the Commission acting with the Committee ) doubts '
  were expressed on the question whether changes in the allocation of
  Community quotas between Member States are subject to that procedure .
  As a consequence the Council adopted the Commission 's proposal ,
  substituting Article 113 for Regulation ( EEC ) n° 3059 as a legal
  basi s . .
  The Commission remains of the view that the Committee procedure
  provided for by Regulation n° 3059 / 78 as it stands applies for
  changes in the allocation of Community quotas and that such a procedure
, is necessary to enable the Community to comply with the obligations
  entered into vis - a- vis the third countries concerned .     Such obligations
  are summarised in the Explanatory Memorandum to Commission proposal
  C0M(79)468 of August 10 1979 .
                                      •  Y
  In order to preclude any doubts in the future , the Commission
  proposes to the Council to amend Regulation ( EEC ) n° 3059/ pursuant
  to the following proposal .
