of 13 March 1985
on arrangements for imports into France and the United Kingdom of shirts (category 8) originating in Bangladesh
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN
COMMUNITIES
,
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), 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 have exceeded the level referred to in paragraph 3 of the said Article;
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 request for consultations;
Whereas, pending a mutually satisfactory solution, imports of products of category 8 from Bangladesh into France and the United Kingdom were submitted to a provisional quantitative restriction for the period 17 December 1984 to 16 March 1985 by Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3670/84 (2);
Whereas the consultations opened with Bangladesh did not lead to a definitive conclusion in regard to the problems involved;
Whereas, in these circumstances, it is appropriate to make imports of products of category 8 from Bangladesh into France and the United Kingdom subject to quantitative limits for the period 17 December 1984 to 31 July 1985; whereas a decision on limits for the rest of 1985 and for 1986 will be taken later having regard to the final outcome of the consultations;
Whereas paragraph 13 of the said Article 11 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 into France and the United Kingdom between 17 December 1984 and the date of entry into force of this Regulation must be set off against the quantitative limits laid down in the Annex;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Textiles Committee,
