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 1003/85 (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 Italy of textile products of category 4, specified in the Annex hereto and originating in Brazil, 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, Brazil was notified on 12 September 1985 of a request for consultations;
Whereas, pending the outcome of the requested consultations, imports into Italy were made subject to a provisional quantitative limit for the period 12 September until 11 December 1985 by Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2759/85 of 30 September 1985 (3);
Whereas in consultations held on 12 November 1985 it was agreed that imports of the textile products in question should be subject to quantitative limits for the period 12 September until 31 December 1985 and for the year 1986;
Whereas paragraph 13 of the said Article 11 provides for compliance with the quantitative limit 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 the Brazil to Italy between 12 September 1985 and the date of entry into force of this Regulation must be set off against the quantitative limit which has been introduced for the period 12 September until 31 December 1985;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Textiles Committee,
Without prejudice to the provisions of Article 2, imports into Italy of the category of products originating in Brazil and specified in the Annex hereto shall be subject to the quantitative limits set out therein.
1. Products as referred to in Article 1, shipped from Brazil to Italy Before the date of entry into force of Regulation (EEC) No 2759/85 and not yet released for free circulation, shall be so released subject to the presentation of a bill of lading or other transport document proving that shipment actually took place before that date.
2. Imports of such products shipped from Brazil to Italy after the entry into force of Regulation (EEC) No 2759/85 shall continue to be subject to the double-checking system described in Annex VI to Regulation (EEC) No 3589/82.
3. All quantities of products shipped from Brazil to Italy from 12 September 1985 and released for free circulation shall be deducted from the quantitative limits for 1985. These limits shall not, however, prevent the importation of products covered by it, but shipped from Brazil to Italy before the entry into force of Regulation (EEC) No 2759/85.
Regulation (EEC) No 2759/85 is hereby repealed.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
It shall apply until 31 December 1986.
