COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 356/95 of 20 February 1995 amending Regulation (EC) No 3286/94 laying down Community procedures in the field of the common commercial policy in order to ensure the exercise of the Community's rights under international  trade rules, in particular those established under the auspices of the World Trade Organization (WTO)
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 113 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas by Regulation (EC) No 3286/94 (1), the Council has adopted Community procedures to ensure the exercise of the Community's rights under international trade rules;
Whereas Article 15 (2) of Regulation (EC) No 3286/94 repealed Council Regulation (EEC) No 2641/84 of 17 September 1984 on the strengthening of the common commercial policy with regard in particular to protection against illicit commercial practices (2);
Whereas under Article 16 (1) thereof Regulation (EC) No 3286/94 applies to proceedings initiated after 1 January 1995;
Whereas it is therefore appropriate to amend Articles 15 (2) and 16 (1) of Regulation (EC) No 3286/94 in order to state clearly that Regulation (EC) No 3286/94 also applies to proceedings still pending on 1 January 1995, but in relation to which  Community examination procedures have been completed,
