Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3589/82 of 23 December 1982 on common rules for imports of certain textile products originating in third countries (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3762/83 (2), and in particular Article 11 thereof,
Whereas Article 11 of Regulation (EEC) No 3589/82 lays down the conditions under which quantitative limits may be established; whereas imports into France and the United Kingdom of shirts (category 8) originating in Bangladesh exceeded the levels referred to in paragraph 3 of the said Article;
Whereas Bangladesh was notified on 3 July 1984 of a request for consultations with a view to reaching agreement on suitable levels of limitation;
Whereas the consultations opened with Bangladesh did not lead to a resolution of the problem involved;
Whereas the circumstances which led to the initial request still persist;
Whereas, in accordance with paragraph 5 of the said Article 11 of Regulation (EEC) No 3589/82, Bangladesh was notified on 17 December 1984 of a new request for consultations;
Whereas, pending a mutually satisfactory solution, the Commission has requested Bangladesh to limit, for a provisional period of three months from the date of notification of the request for consultations, exports of products of category 8 to France at 350 000 pieces and to the United Kingdom at 300 000 pieces;
Whereas, pending the outcome of the requested consultations, quantitative limits identical to those requested of the supplier country should be applied provisionally to imports of the category of products in question;
Whereas paragraph 13 of the said Article provides for compliance with the quantitative limits to be ensured by means of a double-checking system in accordance with Annex VI to Regulation (EEC) No 3589/82;
Whereas the products in question exported from Bangladesh between 17 December 1984 and the date of entry into force of this Regulation must be set off against the quantitative limits which have been introduced;
Whereas these quantitative limits should not prevent the importation of products covered by them shipped from Bangladesh before the date of entry into force of this Regulation;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Textile Committee,
