Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1736/75 of 24 June 1975 on the external trade statistics of the Community and statistics of trade between Member States (1), and in particular Articles 8 and 41 thereof,
Having regard to Council Directive 69/73/EEC of 4 March 1969 on the harmonization of provisions laid down by law, regulation or administrative action in respect of inward processing (2), as last amended by Directive 76/119/EEC (3),
Having regard to Council Directive 76/119/EEC of 18 December 1975 on the harmonization of provisions laid down by law, regulation or administrative action in respect of outward processing,
Whereas statistical returns in respect of importation for inward processing or of exportation after inward processing, on the one hand, and of exportation for outward processing or of importation after outward processing, on the other hand, should correspond to the customs arrangements for inward and outward processing respectively ; whereas these customs arrangements bear different names in the Member States;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee on External Trade Statistics,
