At its meetings 23 /24 January , 11/ 12/ 13 and 25 /26/ 27 February and
4/5 and 22 March 1976 , the Joint Group of Government Experts which
meets under the aegis of the Commission to study economic problems
relating to the Common Customs Tariff , examined :
 (a) the advisability of extending the suspensions of duties which
      are due to expire on 30 June 1976 , and
 (b ) new applications submitted by certain Member States for the
      suspension of Common Customs Tariff duties on certain produces
      as from 1 July 1976 .
The applications submitted relate to products in respect of which
the Member States concerned consider that a provisional reduction
of autonomous duties in the Common Customs Tariff is justified for
economic reasons , owing to the non-existence or inadequacy of produc­
tion in the Community .
Most of these products are raw materials intended for processing
industries pr are considered as such . They are in particular basic
substances for the chemical industry . Account was taken of the
possibility of substituting other products already manufactured in
the Community and of the importance to the Community of the proposed
measure .
The requests of the new Member States to suspend Common Customs
Tariff duties are based , not only on the economic reasons mentioned ,
but also on the following considerations :
From 1 January 1974 the new Member States have no longer the power
to suspend autonomously their duties without limitations . Their
duties can only be suspended in respect of the difference between
their duties and the Common Customs Tariff duties . If it appears
necessary to suspend a duty beyond this limit , the Common Customs
Tariff duty has to be suspended .
The above mentioned Group favoured unanimously the total or partial
suspension of duties on the products which are the subject of the
draft Regulation annexed hereto .

5.   Having   regard to the results of this work it appears appropriate
     to the   Commission to propose to the Council the suspension of the
     Common   Customs Tariff duties for the products listed in the annex
     to the   following regulation .
6*   As regards the duration for the proposed suspensions of duties ,
     it will be seen that a six month period from 1 July to 31 December
     1976 or a twelve month period from 1 July 1976 to 30 June 1977 is'
     proposed for the products concerned .
7*   In view of the above-mentioned suspension duties in   the Common
     Customs Tariff the new Member States are obliged to   suspend the
     corresponding duties in their tariffs in accordance   with Article
     39 , paragraph 2 of the act concerning the Condition  of Accession
     and the Adjustments of the Treaties .
8.   The Group also examined the possibility of suspending the Common
     Customs Tariff duty on the products listed in the table annexed
   ■ hereto . It was not possible to reach an unanimous opinion on the
     subject because of the unfavourable opinions , based on economic
     considerations , which were expressed by one or other of the Member
     States .
