                                                     COTTAGE INDUSTRY PRODUCTS
             The provisions of the second subparagraph of Article 2 ( 1 ) of the Agreement in respect of
             cottage industry products shall apply only to the following products :
                 ( i ) textile fabrics woven on looms operated solely by hand or foot , being fabrics of a kind
                         traditionally made in the cottage industry of Bangladesh ;
               ( i ) garments or other textile articles of a kind traditionally made in the cottage industry of
                         Bangladesh and produced solely by hand without the aid of any machine from the fabrics
                         described above ;
             ( iii ) folklore textile products forming part of the particular cultural tradition of Bangladesh
                         made in the cottage industry of Bangladesh solely by hand without the aid of any machine ,
                         as defined in a list of such products to be agreed between the two Parties ;
             ( iv ) traditional Bangladesh handicraft batik ( 1 ) fabrics and textile articles made by hand from
                         such batik fabrics without the aid of any machine .
             Imports of these products will not be subject to quantitative limits provided that they are
             covered by a certificate issued by the competent authorities of Bangladesh conforming to the
             specimen annexed to this Protocol . Such certificate shall indicate the grounds on which
             exemption is based and shall be accepted by the competent Community authorites provided
             that they are satisfied that the products concerned conform to the conditions set out in this
             Protocol . Should imports of any of the above products reach such proportions as to cause
             difficulties to the Community , the two Parties shall open consultations forthwith in accordance
             with the procedure laid down in Article 7 of the Agreement with a view to finding a quantitative
             solution to the problem .
             (') Handicraft batik is produced by a traditional process by which colours and shades are added to a
                      bleached or white fabric. The process is carried out by hand in three stages namely:
                      ( a ) waxing ( application of wax by hand to the fabric);
                      ( b ) dyeing painting (application of colour either by the traditional cottage method of dyeing or by
                            hand painting );
                      ( c ) de-waxing ( boiling the fabric to remove the wax ).
                      The three stages of the process are repeated on the fabric for each of the colours or shades of the
                      design .
