      Council Regulation ( EEC ) No 2313/71 on the temporary partial suspension
of the Common Customs Tariff duties on wine originating in and coming from
Algeria, and Regulation (EEC ) NO 2823/71 on the temporary partial suspension
of the Common Customs Tariff duties on wine originating in and coming from
Morocco , Tunisia and Turkey were, adopted "by the Council , pending the
introduction of a definitive system , so as to avoid any interruption in the
flow of wine- exports from those countries into the Community and without
thereby prejudicing the interests of Community producers .
      These Regulations , amended by Council Regulation ( EEC ) No 2012/73 , are
only 'applicable until 31st August , 1974 * It is possible that the definitive
systems can be adopted and enacted in the framework of the "Global Approach"
before this date but , even if this is so , their entry into force would not be
possible for several months . Consequently the Coiamission suggests to the
Council that .the period of validity of these Regulations be extended until
31st August , 1975 , at the - latest , by adopting this proposal for a Regulation .
      Prom previous trade figures it is estimated that prolongation of the
partial suspension of the customs duties referred to above for one year , that
is from 31st August , 1974 » "to 31st August , 1975 » would involve an amount of •
2.2 millions of u.a, in non-collected duties . •.
