                    Explanatory Memorandum
This proposal for a Regulation will implant the agreement
reached following consultation with the USA within the
framework of GATT-Article XXIII, with the aim of consolidating
import duty agreed in 1967 by the Community, concerning
residues from the manufacture of starch from maize.
In particular, this agreement provides for the non-collection
of import duty or repayment of duty already paid, for "corn
gluten feed" having certain analytical characteristics, and
applies for the period from 1 January 1991 to 31 December
1991.
