*****COUNCIL  REGULATION (EEC) No 424/82  of 22 February 1982  concerning the import system applicable to certain non-member countries in the sheepmeat and goatmeat sector in 1982  THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,  Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 43 thereof,  Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (1),  Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (2),  Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 1837/80 of 27 June 1980 on the common organization of the market in sheepmeat and goatmeat (3) established a system of trade with non-member countries in this sector; whereas this system includes the collection of an import levy;  Whereas the Community has concluded or is in the process of concluding voluntary restraint agreements with the great majority of the non-member countries exporting sheepmeat and goatmeat products;  Whereas, pending the conclusion of agreements with other non-member countries which traditionally export to the Community, it would seem appropriate to restrict in 1982 the collection of the levy and the issue of import licences in respect of certain products from these countries;  Whereas imports into the Member States should be allowed, account being taken of traditional trade patterns,  HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:  Article 1  1.

Article 3  The detailed rules for implementing this Regulation shall be drawn up in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 26 of Regulation (EEC) No 1837/80.  Article 4  This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.  It shall apply from 1 January 1982 until voluntary restraint agreements with the non-member countries concerned are implemented or until 31 December 1982, whichever is the sooner.
