Under Council Regulation ( EEC ) N° 435 / 80 , the Community agreed to apply ,
before the date of entry into force of the ACP-EEC Convention of Lom£ ,
signed on 31 October 1979 , and of the new Decision on the Community 's
association with the overseas countries and territories ( OCT ), the
arrangements laid down in the Convention and the Decision concerning
agricultural products and foodstuffs originating in the ACP States or the
OCT .                                             -                   .   ' -
The Community , however , limited the initial application of the said
Regulation to the anticipated date for the ratification of the Convention
( 31 Décembre 1980 ).                                   .

It is not certain that the Convention and Decision will enter into force
on 31 December 1980 .   To avoid a discontinuity in trade , it is necessary
therefore to extend the application of Regulation ( EEC ) N° 435 / 80 for a
further interim period beyond 31 December 1980 .                ~
The attached proposal for a Regulation aims to ensure such an extension .
         i                                            *
The financial implications are dealt with in the context of the financial
implications of the Commission proposal concerning the introduction of
these arrangements in 1980 ( C0M(79 ) 736 final ).
