Under the Interim Agreements being implemented pending the entry into force
of the Cooperation Agreements signed between the EEC and Algeria and between
the EEC and Morocco , Community tariff quotas have been opened for wines
having a registered designation of origin and originating in those countries .
Under the Agreements , part of each quota is reserved for wine in bulk , which
must be put up in accordance with certain conditions .    One of these condi­
tions is that the wine in question may be transported only in containers of a
capacity not exceeding 25 hectolitres .
It has become clear in practice that , owing to present transport conditions ,
this obligation is preventing Algeria and Morocco from making full use of
the quotas allocated to them .
Therefore , in order to allow Algerian and Moroccan exporters sufficient time
in which to comply , on this point , with the technical requirements of the
Agreements and in order to enable the Community 's partners to benefit fully
during this period from the tariff advantages agreed , the Commission requests
the Council , in the attached proposals , to amend the - eaulations opting ,
allocating and providing for the administration of t.ic quotas in question ,
so as to allow , during the period of validity of these regulations ,, the bulk
wine to which they apply to be transported in contain' > -■••Hb    ^--^ city n^t
exceeding 200 hi .
