      AGREEMENT
   
   in the form of an exchange of letters between the European Community and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam amending the Agreement between the European Economic Community and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam on trade in textile products to take into account the expected accession of the Republic of Austria, the Republic of Finland and the Kingdom of Sweden to the European Union
   Sir,
   
               1.
            
            
               I have the honour to refer to the Agreement between the European Economic Community and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam on trade in textile products initialled on 15 December 1992.
            
         
               2.
            
            
               In order to take into account the expected accession of the Republic of Austria, the Republic of Finland and the Kingdom of Sweden to the European Union on 1 January 1995, the European Community considers that the following amendments should be made to the Agreement between the European Economic Community and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam on trade in textile products:
               
                           2.1.
                        
                        
                           The following text is added after Article 10, paragraph 2:
                           „For the purposes of applying the provisions of paragraph 2 in the year 1995, the preceding year's total imports from all third countries shall be calculated on the basis of imports into the Community as constituted on 31 December 1994 and of imports into Austria, Finland and Sweden. Trade between the Community, Austria, Finland and Sweden, or between Austria, Finland, and Sweden shall be excluded from this total.”
                        
                     
                           2.2.
                        
                        
                           Figures in Annex II which set out the quantitative limits for exports from the Socialist Republic of Vietnam to the European Union are to be replaced by limits for the enlarged Community as set out in Appendix I to this letter.
                        
                     
                           2.3.
                        
                        
                           Article 14, paragraph 2, subparagraph 2, second indent of Protocol A, Title IV, should be amended as follows:

                           Figures in the Annex to Protocol B which set out the quantitative restrictions for economic outward processing operations are to be replaced by limits for the enlarged Community as set out in Appendix V to this letter.

                           Should one or more acceding countries not join the European Union the adjustments calculated for this or these countries shall be deducted from the „Adjusted limits 1995, 1996 and 1997” set out in Appendices I and V to this letter and the respective amendments mentioned under point 2.3 shall not enter into force.
                        
                     
                           2.9.
                        
                        
                           Notwithstanding the modifications referred to under points 2.4, 2.5 and 2.6, during a transitional period that will end on 30 June 1995, the competent authorities of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam shall be authorized to continue issuing the forms that were in use in 1994.

                           Should inaccuracies appear in the trade figures used to establish the adjustments contained in Appendices I and V, technical revisions of these adjustments will be made following consultations and provided that the request for consultations is made not later than 28 February 1995.
                        
                     
         
               3.
            
            
               I should be obliged if you could kindly confirm the acceptance of your Government of the foregoing. Should this be the case, this Agreement in the form of an exchange of letters shall enter into force on the first day of the month following the day on which the Parties have notified each other that the legal procedures necessary to this end have been completed. In the meantime, it shall be applied provisionally from 1 January 1995 on the conditions to be specified in an exchange of notes (see Appendix VI).
            
         Please accept, Sir, the assurance of my highest consideration.

      Appendix VI
      Exchange of notes
      The Directorate-General for External Economic Relations of the Commission of the European Communities presents its compliments to the Mission of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam to the European Communities and has the honour to refer to the Agreement on trade in textile products between the Socialist Republic of Vietnam and the European Economic Community initialled on 15 December 1992, as amended by the exchange of letters initialled on (date of initialling).
      The Directorate-General wishes to inform the Mission of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam that whilst awaiting the completion of the necessary procedures for the conclusion and coming into force of the amended Agreement, the European Community is prepared to allow the provisions of the Agreement to apply de facto from 1 January 1995. This is on the understanding that either Party may at any time terminate this de facto application of the amended Agreement provided that one hundred and twenty days notice is given.
      The Directorate-General for External Economic Relations would be grateful if the Mission of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam would confirm its agreement to the foregoing.
      The Directorate-General for External Economic Relations of the Commission of the European Communities avails itself of this opportunity to renew to the Mission of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam to the European Communities the assurance of its highest consideration.

   Sir,
   
               1.
            
            
               I have the honour to refer to the Agreement between the European Economic Community and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam on trade in textile products initialled on 15 December 1992.
            
         
               2.
            
            
               In order to take into account the expected accession of the Republic of Austria, the Republic of Finland and the Kingdom of Sweden to the European Union on 1 January 1995, the European Community considers that the following amendments should be made to the Agreement between the European Economic Community and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam on trade in textile products:
               
                           2.1.
                        
                        
                           The following text is added after Article 10, paragraph 2:
                           ‘For the purposes of applying the provisions of paragraph 2 in the year 1995, the preceding year's total imports from all third countries shall be calculated on the basis of imports into the Community as constituted on 31 December 1994 and of imports into Austria, Finland and Sweden. Trade between the Community, Austria, Finland and Sweden, or between Austria, Finland, and Sweden shall be excluded from this total.’
                        
                     
                           2.2.
                        
                        
                           Figures in Annex II which set out the quantitative limits for exports from the Socialist Republic of Vietnam to the European Union are to be replaced by limits for the enlarged Community as set out in Appendix I to this letter.
                        
                     
                           2.3.
                        
                        
                           Article 14, paragraph 2, subparagraph 2, second indent of Protocol A, Title IV, should be amended as follows:

This is on the understanding that either Party may at any time terminate this de facto application of the amended Agreement provided that one hundred and twenty days notice is given.
