THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES ,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic        Community ,
and in particular Article 28 thereof ,
Having regard to the draft Regulation submitted by the Commission ,
Whereas by Regulation ( EEC ) No 2883 / 75 of 29 October 1975 on the opening ,

                                                                                  1 )
thrown ) falling within heading No 50.02 of the Common Customs Tariff ( 1976 )
the Council opened and allocated among the Member States , for raw silk ( not
thrown ) falling within heading No 50.02 of the Common Customs Tariff , a
zero-duty Community tariff quota , the volume of which was fixed at 2 500
metric tons ;
Whereas , having regard to the increase in consumption recorded in 1976 ,
it can be estimated that the quota volume of 2 500 metric tons will not
be sufficient to satisfy requirements ; whereas the quota volume of 150
metric tons should be increased to take into account these requirements ;
whereas , to safeguard the Community nature of the tariff quota in question ,
this additional volume should be allocated to the Community reserve set up
by Article 2(2 ) of Regulation ( EEC ) No 2883/ 75 ,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION :
                                 Article 1
The Community tariff quota opened by Council Regulation ( EEC ) No 2883/ 75
for raw silk ( not thrown ), falling within heading No 50.02 of the Common
Customs Tariff , shall be increased from 2 500 to 2 650 metric tons .
                                                                              ./.

No 2883/ 75 which shall thus be increased from 500 to 650 metric tons .
