 ---pagebreak---                            EXPLANATORY MEM3RAND0M
1. The attached proposal for a Council Decision is the legal instrument for
   the conclusion of the Agreement between the European Economie Community
   and the Polish People's Bepuhlic on trade and commercial and economic
   cooperation.
2. Exploratory talis have been held between experts representing the
   Commission and Poland since July 1986. The talis dealt in particular
   with. Poland's wish to facilitate access to the Community market for its
   exports by removing all quantitative restrictions applied specifically
   to Poland in accordance with the provisions of the Protocol for Poland's
   accession to the GATT.
3. On the basis of the negotiating directives given by the Council on
   20 February this year, the Commission held four official negotiating
   sessions with Poland between March and July, in addition to numerous
   informal contacts. The text initialled at Warsaw on 8 August and
   attached to the proposal contains the following provisions:
    (a) the Osmmunity and Poland reaffirm their commitment to accord each
        other most-favoured-nation treatment in accordance with GATT rules.
        The Community further undertakes to remove or liberalize the
        quantitative restrictions it applies to Polish exports by
        31 December 1994 at the latest, subject to exceptions (Articles 2,
        7-9);
    (b) the Community and Poland accord p^^h other trade concessions for a
        limited number of agricultural products of which one party is the
        other party's main supplier (Article 12);
    (c) Poland undertakes to ensure non-discrlmlnatory treatment of
        Community firms for the purposes of commercial cooperation
        (Article 16 and Annex VI ; ;
    (d) economic cooperation is aimed, inter alia in the sectors listed in
        Article 18 (although this list is not exhaustive), at strengthening
        economic links, increasing trade between the parties and supporting
        structural changes in the Polish economy;
    (e) Article 20 sets up a Joint Committee and defines its tasks: it is to
        ensure the proper, functioning of the Agreement and recommend the
        measures it considers appropriate for achieving the Agreement's
        objectives.
4. The Polish delegation has further drawn up a unilateral Declaration
    relating to the Protocol for the accession of Poland to the GAIT. In
    the Declaration, to be made at the signing of the Agreement, Poland
    announces its intention of renegotiating the said Protocol on account of
    the far-reaching changes which have taken place in its foreign trade
    system.

5. In an Exchange of Letters, the parties agree to identify the products
   covered by the Annexes to the Agreement by means of NIHEXE codes. The
   Community will subsequently transpose the NIMEXE codes into Combined
   Nomenclature codes. A further Exchange of Letters concerns the
   experimental arrangements for granting import licences in the Federal
   Republic of Germany ('Testausschreltung"). Two further Joint
   Declarations, relating to quantitative restrictions and to agriculture,
   together with the Polish Declaration referred to in paragraph 4 above,
   will be concluded by means of a Final Act, these Declarations not being
   an integral part of the Agreement.
6. Since the legal basis for the Agreement is not only Article 113 of the
   EEC Treaty, but also Article 235, Parliament must be consulted.
7. The Commission invites the Council to adopt the attached proposal.
                                                                           j

                                                 Brussels,
Sir,
Since the beginning of 1980 a new import scheme aimed at subsequent further
liberalization ('Testausschreifcung') has been introduced by the Federal
Republic of Germany covering almost half of the industrial products still
subject to quantitative restrictions (apart from textile and steel
products). This scheme provides on an experimental and temporary basis for
the issue of import licences above and beyond the limits set by the quotas.
Th 'Testausschriebung' is intended to permit an assessment. In the course
of future years, of the sectors in which quantitative restrictions on
imports of industrial products might be removed. During the examination of
the results of the 'Testausschreihung', the particular importance which
Poland attaches to the expansion of economic relations and Poland's
contractual relations with the Community will be taken into consideration.
If, in particular instances, as a result of Polish exports to the Federal
Republic of Germany, market trends make it necessary to discontinue this
practice, Poland will be informed to this effect immediately and prior
ccncultation may take place if Poland so requests.
I should be obliged if you would confirm that your Government is in
agreement with the above.
Please accept, Sir, the assurance of my highest consideration.
                                     On behalf of the Council

import quotas.
                                                                           U

          TO IMPORTS OF YOUNG MALE BOVINE ANIMALS INTENDED FOR FATTENING
                       ORIGINATING  IN AND COMING FROM POLAND
The Community and Poland agree that the suspension it 30X of the total levy
 shall apply to a maximum number of head of young maid bovine animals Intended
 for fattening to be fixed annually by the Council of the European Communities
 In accordance with Council Regulation (EEC) N 805/68 of 27 June 1968.
The Community      and Poland agree in drawing up       the  estimate to follow     the
cooperation procedure set out below :
 1.     Commission staff will collect Information supplied by the Community
        Member    States on their respective needs as regards animals for
         fattenIng.
        On the basis of this Information and their own           forecasts,  they will
        make an overall estimate of Community n e e d s .
 2.     This    estimate     will    be  communicated     to  the  competent     Polish
        author 11 ies .
3.      This will bs followed as soon as possible by meetings between the
         competent Polish authorities and Commission staff. The objectives of
         the8© meetings will be as follows :
            to exchange views on the whole situation of the beef
            market    In the Community and the forecasts for           production   and
            consumptIon ;
        -   to enable both sides to analyse the data used to estimate        Community
            needs In respect of live animals for fattening;
            to   exchange information on Poland's export
            opportun 11les.
^.      Following these meetings, the Commission will produce a draft estimate
        for transmission to the Council taking Into account alt the elements
        arising during the discussions which can be quantified on as realistic
        a basls as posa lb le.
        The draft estimate given to the Council will be accompanied by a
        document    reflecting    the substance of the views expressed by the
        participants about Community needs and their export opportunities.
5.      The estimate should be drawn up In such a way as to ensure regular
        supplies for the Community market and permit an Increase In Imports In
        proportion to any Increase In Community needs, taking Into account the
        foreseeable expansion of the market.
        In the light of these considerations, It Is expected that the annual
        level of Imports of animals for fattening under the estimate will show
       a tendency     to rise over a period of eeveral years as Community needs
        Increase.

                           DECLARATION BY POLAND
relating to the Protocol for the accession of Poland to the General
Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT)
The Government of the Polish People's Republic wishes to renegotiate the
Protocol for its accession to the GATT.
Poland's foreign trade system has been fundamentally changed as a result of
the economic reform.  The State's monopoly of foreign trade has been
abolished, the allocation of currency is being decentralized and customs
duties are now the main instrument for fixing the prices of imported goods.
In view of the far-reaching changes to the country's economic environment,
the conditions of the Protocol for Poland's accession to the G&TT no longer
correspond to economic realities and it is essential that they should be
changed.
Poland intends to replace its undertaking concerning the volume of imports
with tariff concessions; this would place Poland in an analagous position
to that of all the other members of the GATT and, moreover, would enable
Poland to make its full contribution to the process of liberalizing world
trade and to the Uruguay Round of multilateral trade negotiations.
The Government of Poland, recognizing the European Economic Community's
major role within the GATT, hopes that the Community will be able to
