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), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1623/86 (2), and in particular Article 13 thereof,
Whereas Article 13 of Regulation (EEC) No 3589/82 lays down the conditions in which adjustments may be made to the quantitative limits referred to in Article 3 where, following inquiries carried out it is shown that products originating in a supplier country listed in Annex II and subject to the quantitative limits referred to have been transhipped, re-routed or otherwise imported into the Community through circumvention of such quantitative limits;
Whereas inquiries carried out have shown certain products in category 1 (cotton yarn) originating in Brazil to have been imported into Germany under false certificates of origin;
Whereas, in accordance with Article 13 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 3589/82, Brazil was notified of requests for consultations on 27 February, 8 April, 15 July and 17 October 1986;
Whereas those consultations took place on 27 and 28 October 1986; whereas they did not arrive at a satisfactory solution;
Whereas there is clear evidence of circumvention within the meaning of Article 13 (3); whereas therefore 750 tonnes should be deducted from the quota allocated to Germany under the Community quantitative limit laid down for category 1 in 1986;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Textile Committee,
