( 1) The Additional Protocol and the Supplementary Protocol ooncluded "by
     the Community with Turkey provide for oertain partial or total
     suspensions for agricultural products mentioned in Chapters 1 – 24
     of the Common Customs Tariff•
     Furthermore, the Council has deoided th^t as from 1 January 1974
     Turkey should not be treated less favourably than the countries;
     and territories benefiting from generalised tariff preferences .
(2 ) The proposal for a regulation is aimed at securing implementation
     of these decisions . They extend to Turkey for 197     on an autonomous
     basis, the total or partial suspensions of duties proposed by the
     Commission under the generalised tariff preference,: scheme ; these
     suspensions would, however, be confined to the products mentioned
     in Chapters 1 –:- 24, in respect of which no provision is made for
     more favourable treatment in the agreements with Turkey#
(3 ) As the proposal for a regulation is based on Artioles 43 and 113
     of the Treaty, the European Parliament has to be consulted*
(4 ) It is pointed out that :
     – the proposal for a regulation is based on the Supplementary
        Protocol , which is not certain to enter into force on 1 January
        197$ j
     - the enaoting terms of the regulation and the list of products in
        annex to it are based on the proposal forwarded by the Commission
        to the Council concerning generalised tariff preferences for the
        agricultural products mentioned in Chapters 1 – 24 .
     This proposal would'therefore have to be amended should the Supplementary
     Protocol not come into foroe on 1 January 197^, and will have to be
     harmonized with the final text of the regulation on suspensions under
     the generalised preference soheme when it has been adopted by the
      Counoil •
