                                                          1
Under Council Decision 76/ 845 / EEC of 20 September 1976 , the Community is
provisionally applying the International Coffee Agreement 1976, which
entered into force provisionally on 1 October 1976 and definitively on
1 August 1977 .
By Council Decision 79 / 827 / EEC of 25 September 1979 , the Community notified its
intention to continue to participate in the Agreement for the remaining three
years of its duration , i.e. until 30 September 1982 .
Article 68 of the Agreement states that the Agreement may be extended , with
or without modification , or be regotiated .
By Resolution No 318 of 25 September 1981 , the International Coffee Council
decided that the International Coffee Agreement 1976 would be extended until
30 September 1983 , provided the Council had taken a decision by 1 July 1982 on
any proposal received from the Members as at 31 January 1982 concerning
amendments to the Agreement to be applied as part of any extension of the
Agreement beyond 1 October 1983 .
These proposals are currently the subject of discussions and negotiations
within the International Coffee Organization .     Without prejudicing the
decisions which the International Coffee Council will be required to take by
1 July 1982 , the Executive Director pointed out in his memorandum of 12
March 1982 to the Members that since the Council was obliged to take the
appropriate measures for the 1982 / 83 coffee year and to adopt quotas for
that year , it was essential that the notifications of acceptance should be
made as soon as possible .
                                                                      ■ • ■/■ • •

In order to maintain the effectiveness and credibility of this important
international agreement , the Commission considers that the Community and
all the Member States should as soon as possible , and in any event by
30 September 1982 , complete the necessary formalities for participation in
the extended Agreement .
The Commission therefore recommends that the Council should decide to
notify the United Nations Secretary-General by 30 September 1982 - the
absolute deadline - of the European Economic Community 's intention to
apply provisionally the International Coffee Agreement 1976 , as extended   •
until 30 September 1983 .
