                           REGULATION (EEC ) OF THE COUNCIL
       approving the exchange of letters rectifying Annex A of Protocole
         Ho . 1 to the Agreement between the European Economic Community

   COM ( 74 ) 713 Final
 ---pagebreak---                             Explanatory memorandum
1. The Agreement between the European Economic Community and the
   Republic of Finland signed on 5 October 197^ provides for a duty
   free quota for imports of printing paper and writing paper , con
   taining mechanical wood pulp , excluding copying tissue ( CCT Heading
   nr ex ^8.01E ) originating in Finland into the United Kingdom during
   the period of tariff dismanteling
         /. This quota was determined on the basis of the import
   statistics furnished by the United Kingdom .
2. During the negotiation of the Agreement it was already noted that
   the United Kingdom import statistics were lower than the Finnish
   export figures . At the time it was not possible to explain this
   difference but in the meantime the United Kingdom and Finnish
   authorities have been able to determine that the British figures
   were indeed too low .
3» The attached draft exchange of letters therefore proposes to modify
   the United Kingdom duty free quota for this printing and writing
   paper contained in Annex A of Protocol No . 1 to the Agreement .
   The Finnish authorities have expressed their agreement with the
   wording of the attached letter . It is proposed that Mr. Wellenstein
   sign on behalf of the Community . In this case the Finnish Ambassador
   could sign on behalf of the Finnish Government .
5. If the Council agrees to the proposed increase of the amount of
   the duty free quota , the corresponding indicative ceiling provided
   for in Protocol No . 1 of the Agreement and contained in Regulation
   ( EEC ) no . 3^70/73 of the Council of 17 December 1973 establishing
   Community supervision of imports of certain products originating
   in Finland will have to be modified accordingly . A draft regulation
   to this end will be submitted to the Council separately .

             Economic Community and the Republic of Finlcnd
The Council of the European Communities
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community ,
and in particular Article 113 thereof ;
Having regard to the recommendation of the Commission;
Having regard to the Agreement signed on 5 October 1973 between the
European Economic Community and the Republic of Finland ;
Whereas Annex A to Protocol No . 1 to the Agreement between the European
Economic Community and the Republic of Finland should "be rectified and
the exchange of letters to this effect between the European Economic
Community and the Republic of Finland on                  1974 approved
Has adopted the following regulation :
 ---pagebreak---      Consequently the Community considers that in accordance with Article 1 ,
paragraph 4 , of Protocol No . 1 to the Agreement between the European Economic
Community and the Republic of Finland the initial duty free quota for the
    printing and writing paper concerned which the United Kingdom may open,
in 197^ should be 177»155 t «
     Accordingly the figure shown opposite the position 43.01 ex E "Printing
paper and writing paper , containing mechanical wood pulp, excluding copying
tissue" in the column "United Kingdom" of Annex A of Protocol No . 1 to the
Agreement should read 177,155     instead of 103,167 t .
     I should be grateful if you would confirm the agreement of the Republic
of Finland with the content of this letter .
     Please accept , Sir , the asstirance of my highest consideration .

    Your Excellency ,
         During the negotiations of the Agreement between the European
    Economic Community and the Republic of Finland signed on 5 October
    1973 it was not possible to clarify certain differences between
    Finnish and United Kingdom statistics on the imports of printing ,
    paper and writing paper , containing mechanical wood pulp , excluding
    copying tissue ( CCT Heading nO . ex 48.01E ) originating in Finland .
         Further examination of this question has revealed that the
    error resulted from substantial quantities of these products being
    imported during the reference period 1968/71 from Finland into the
    United Kingdom as "newsprint " • This error was at the time without
    practical consequences as both products entered the United Kingdom
    duty free .
                                                         1
         It has since been found that the figures established by the
    Finnish Customs Board for the period in question coincide very closely
    with these provided by the large users of this printing and wri
    ting paper in the United Kingdom .
         The figures advanced by the Finnish Customs Board are the
    following :
