THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 113 in  conjunction with Article 228 (2) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas a GATT panel found that the Community's support system for oil seeds had the effect of  reducing the value of the tariff concessions granted by the Community in 1962;
Whereas the GATT panel consequently recommended that the Community should act quickly to eliminate  this reduction in the value of tariff concessions;
Whereas a mutually satisfactory agreement was reached in the negotiations with the majority of GATT  contracting parties having negotiating rights pursuant to Article XXVIII of the GATT;
Whereas these Agreements in the form of Agreed Minutes should be put into effect quickly, so that  the agreed deadlines can be met and should therefore be approved,
