 ---pagebreak---                            Proposal for a
                           COUNCIL DECISION
authorizing the automatic renewal or continued
          of certain treaties of friendship ,
trade and navigation treaties and similar agreements
  concluded between Member States and third countries
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES ,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic
Community , and in particular Article 113 thereof ,
Having regard to        Council Decision 69 / 494 / EEC of 16 December 1969 on
the progressive standardization of agreements concerning
commercial relations between Member States and third countries
and on the negotiation of Community Agreements ( 1 ), and in
particular Article 3 thereof ,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
( 1 ) OJ N° L 326 , 29.12.1969 , p. 39
 ---pagebreak---                              - 2 -
Whereas automatic renewal or continued operation beyond the end
of the transitional period has already been authorized in the case
of the treaties of friendship , trade and navigation treaties and
similar agreements concluded by the Member States of the Community ,
                                                         2
 in the last instance by Council Decision 78 / 1030 / EEC ;
Whereas the Member States concerned have again requested authorization
for the automatic renewal or continued operation of provisions governing
matters covered by the common commercial policy within the meaning of
Article 113 of the Treaty and contained in the treaties of friendship ,
trade and navigation treaties and similar agreements listed in the Annex ,
to avoid interrupting their commercial relations , based on agreements ,
with the third countries concerned;
Whereas authorization should be granted to maintain commercial relations ,
based on agreements ,  between the Member States and third countries
concerned, pending their replacement by a Community system of agree­
ments or autonomous system ;   whereas such authorization should not ,
therefore , affect the obligation of the Member States to avoid,  apd ,
where appropriate , to eliminate any incompatibility between such
agreements and the provisions of Community law ;
Whereas the provisions of the agreements to be renewed automatically
or continued in operation should not , furthermore , during the period
under consideration , constitute an obstacle to the implementation of
the common commercial policy ;

 ---pagebreak---                                 - 3 -
Whereas the Member States concerned have declared that the automatic
renewal or continued operation of such agreements would not prevent
the opening of Community commercial negotiations with the third
countries concerned, and whereas they are willing to transfer the
commercial fields covered by current bilateral agreements to such
Community agreements as it is proposed to negotiate ;      whereas , at
the conclusion of the consultation provided for in Article 2 of
Council Decision 69 / 494 / EEC , it was established, as the aforesaid
statements by the Member States confirm , that the bilateral agreements
concerned will not , during the period under      consideration , constitute
an obstacle to the implementation of the common commercial policy ;
Whereas , nevertheless , the Member States concerned have stated that
they would be willing to modify and, if necessary, repudiate such
agreements insofar as the automatic renewal or continued operation
of provisions thereof relating to matters covered by Article 113
of the EEC Treaty appear , during the period under consideration to
constitute an obstacle to the implementation of the common commercial
policy ,
Whereas the agreements involved contain repudiation clauses requiring
a period of notice of between three and twelve months ;
Whereas , in these circumstances , the agreements concerned may be
renewed automatically or continued in operation until 31 December 1981 ;
 ---pagebreak--- HAD ADOPTED THIS DECISION :
                            Article 1
The provisions governing matters covered by the common commercial
policy within the meaning of Article 113 of the EEC Treaty and
contained in the treaties of friendship , trade and navigation treaties
and similar agreements listed in the Annex hereto may be renewed
automatically or continued in operation until 31 December 1981 .
