COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 2579/98 of 30 November 1998 establishing the list of textile products for which no proof of origin is required on release for free circulation in the Community
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1541/98 of 13 July 1998 on proof of origin for certain textile products falling within Section XI of the Combined Nomenclature and released for free circulation in the Community, and on the conditions for the acceptance of such proof (1), and in particular Article 4 thereof,
Whereas, for those textile and clothing products not subject to specific measures under the Community's trade policy and which are released for free circulation, the above Regulation provides both that exemption from the obligation to present a proof of origin may be granted and that the provisions establishing exemption from the obligation to present a certificate of origin should indicate if a declaration of origin is to be presented or not for such products;
Whereas products which are not currently subject to specific trade measures have been identified after careful analysis; whereas it seems desirable to dispense with the need for a proof of origin for such products when they are presented for release for free circulation in the Community;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Customs Code Committee,
