           1.     The exemption provided for in Article 5 of the Agreement in respect of cottage industry products
           shall apply only to the following products:
           ( a ) fabrics woven on hand- or foot-operated looms, being fabrics of a kind traditionally made in the
                 cottage industry of Sri Lanka ;
           (b ) garments or other textile articles of a kind traditionally made in the cottage industry of Sri Lanka
                 obtained manually from the fabrics referred to above and sewn exclusively by hand without the
                 aid of any machine;
           (c) traditional folklore textile products of Sri Lanka made by hand in the cottage industry of Sri
                 Lanka as defined in a list to be agreed between both parties and annexed to this Protocol .
           Exemption shall be granted only for products accompanied by a certificate issued by the competent Sri
           Lankan authorities in accordance with the specimen annexed to this Protocol . Such certificates shall
           state the ground on which exemption is based and shall be accepted by the competent Community
           authorities provided that they are satisfied that the products concerned conform to the conditions set
           out in this Protocol . Certificates covering the products referred to in paragraph (c) above shall bear a
           conspicuous stamp : 'FOLKLORE'. In case of divergent opinion between Sri Lanka and the competent
           Community authorities at the point of entry into the Community as to the nature of such products ,
           consultations shall be held within one month with a view to resolving such divergences . 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 16 of the Agreement with a view to finding a quantitative solution to the problem .
           2.     The provisions of Title IV and V of Protocol A shall apply mutatis mutandis to the products
           referred to in paragraph 1 .
