   instrument for^t he conclusion of an Agreement on , Trade and Commercial and'
   Economic Cooperation between the European Economic Community and the Hungaria
   People 's Republic which was initialled on 30th June 1988 .
2.                   Exploratory discussions between the Community and Hungary begar ■
   as early as 1983 .      These centred around Hungarian demands for the elimination
   of discriminatory quantitative restrictions . The basis for this request for
   elimination      stemmed from Hungary 's Protocol of Accession to the GATT in 1973
   which in Article 4 requires the gradual removal of discriminatory quantitativ
   restrictions by 1st January 1975 .                      Vice-President

   Mr. VERESS Hungarian Minister for External Trade .
3.                    In September 1983 and February 1984 Mr. HAFERKAMP reported to
   the Council on the tenor of the various discussions that had been held .           Drafi
                                                                                      Drafl
   negotiating directives were circulated , following which further informal con ¬
   tacts and exploratory conversations took place between the two sides at of ¬
   ficial level during 1985 and 1986 . In September 1986 , Hungari an Deputy Prime
   Minister MARJAI wrote to Mr. HAFERKAMP attaching a draft agreement . On       On
   October 29th 1986 , the Commission approved the directives for the negotiations
   with Hungary which were transmitted to the Council on 20th November 1986 and
            were finally approved by the Council on 27th April 1987 .
4.                    Four official rounds of negotiations and numerous informal
    contacts took place between the Community and Hungary between May 1987 and
    June 1988 .    The text initialled on June 30th and which is attached to the
    draft   decision     consists of three distinct chapters ;
    Comme rci a l Coope rat ion : This chapter ( Articles 1 to 10 ) calls for the elim ¬
    ination of discriminatory quantitative restrictions in three phases . Those   Those
    tariff positions in Annex A will be eliminated within one year of signature ,
    those in Annex B before 31st December 1992 and the remainder more sensitive
    products by 31st December 1995 all in accordance' with the provisions of the F1 r
    tocol-- to Article 4 .
    tocol                     The Commercial chapter also contains a safeguard clause
                                                                             ./.

     ( Article 7 ) based on the safeguard measures contained in Hungary 's Protocol
    of Accession to the GATT with more rigourous terms of application for sen ¬
    sitive products between 1993 and 1998 . Article 10 calls for the maintenanc
                                                                              maintenance
    and improvement of favourable business regulations and facilities in parti ¬
     cular by Hungary on the points indicated in the Annex to this Article .
     Economy c_Coogera1non : Articles 11 and 12 call for the fostering of economic
     cooperation on as broad a base as possible in all fields deemed to             in me
     mutual interest of the Contracting Parties .
      Establishment of a Joint Commi t tee : Article 13 sets up a Joint Committee
     to formulate recommendations and which would normally meet annually .
5.                  It should be noted that the Contracting Parties signed Agreed
      Minutes when the Agreement was initialled in which Hungary expressed the
      request that , notwithstanding any special arrangement which is or may be in
      existence between the Commission and Hungary , products within the pinvince
      of the European Coal and Steel Community should be covered by an oureemcr .:
      between the Member States of the ECSC and Hungary . The Commission tc-ok   took
      note of this request and agreed to transmit it to the Member States of the
       ECSC .
6.                   The Hungarian delegation furthermore transmitted a letter to
       the Commission indicating that the Agreement was being initialled in anti ¬
       cipation of a substantial increase in the number of products set out in
       Annexes A and B and for which discriminatory quantitative restrictions would
       therefore be eliminated by the end of 1992 .
 7.                  The Hungarian delegation also made a unilateral declaration
       that nothing in the Agreement affects or can affect the quadripartite
       agreement of 3rd September 1971 .
  8.                The Commission indicated in a letter to the Hungarian delegation
        that the Agreement should be signed in the Combined Nomenclature system .
        In view of the fact that this would require a further analysis of the lists
        of
