              1.          During the preparatory work carried out in 1979 on fixing
              the import quotas to be opened by Member States in respect of state-
              trading countries in 1980, the Benelux countries , the Federal Republic
              of Germany , France , Italy and the United Kingdom requested , inter alia ,
              increases in quotas for textile products in categories 1 to 8 .
                                                               •    •         »•
                          The Commission considered, however , that the . proposed in-      x
              creases might cause the internal global ceilings fixed for 1980 under
              the commercial policy on textiles to be exceeded . With .a view to studying
              more thoroughly the question of these increases , the Commission decided
              not to include them in the proposal which it presented to the Council
              on 20 November 1979 ( C0M(79)662 final ) concerning the quotas to be laid
              down for 1980 .
                                                                                  (1)
              2.          The study subsequently carried out by the Commission         showed
              that taking into account the appreciable reductions in some of Italy 's
              initial requests , the economic impact of the total increases requested
              in relation to the internal global ceilings - both Community and national -
              was slight . There was also evidence that the introduction of these new
              import opportunities would have a favourable effect on Community 's exports
              to the non-member countries concerned .
              3.          For these reasons , the Commission considers it advisable ,
              taking everything into consideration , that the increases requested be granted .
                          In proposing these measures , the Commission wishes however
              to underline that in its commercial policy on textiles the Community must
              ensure consistency in the treatment of the various supplier countries .
              4.          The Commission proposes therefore that the Council :
              - adopt the decision , the draft of which annexed hereto ;
              - authorize its publication in the Official Journal of the European
                 Communities .                    -
( 1 ) At the request of certain Member States , this matter was discussed in the
      Article 113 Committee ( Textiles )

 ---pagebreak--- whereas Council Decision 80/ 158 / EEC of 20 December 1979 ( 1 ) amending
for 1980 import quotas laid down by Decision 75 / 210/ EEC could not pro­
vide for increases in the quotas in question, as they had first to be
thoroughly examined within the framework of the Community 's commercial
policy on textiles so as to ensure consistency in the treatment of
the various third country suppliers ;
whereas,because of their relatively modest economic impact, the amend­
ments requested do not raise any special problems and whereas they are
likely to favour the development of trade with the third" countries
concerned,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION :
