WORKING PARTY ON THE ASSOCIATION OF OVERSEAS TERRITORIES WITH THE EUROPEAN ECONOMIC COMMUNITY
Information submitted by the Member States
This paper submitted by the Member States contains data on oilseeds and oilbearing fruits (groundnuts, copra etc,), vegetable oils, wood and timber, cotton and hard fibres (abaca, jute etc.).
Notes
1. The determination concerning the possible fiscal nature of certain customs duties applicable to the items under consideration can be made only at a later date in conformity with the provisions of Articles 17, 22 and 23 paragraph 2, of the Treaty.
2. The elimination of import duties in respect of products originating in the overseas countries and territories is governed by the following rules, which are those applicable to the elimination of duties between the Member States under Article 133 of the Treaty:
(1) At the end of the third stage, i.e. at the end of the transitional period, duties shall be completely eliminated.
(2) The Member States shall endeavour to ensure that the reduction applied to the basic duty (i.e. to the duty applied on 1 January 1957) on each product shall be:
- at the end of the first stage: not less than 25 per cent of the basic duty;
- at the end of the second stage: not less th&n 50 per cent of the basic duty;
(3) Within this framework, there are to be a number of reductions: three in each of the first two stages, and an unspecified number in the course of the third stage. The following rules shall be applied:
MGT/24/58
![Page 3: RESTRICTED 20 February 1958 WITH THE EUROPEAN …tation des produits dont l'examen figure à l'ordre du jour de la réunion du ... Within this framework, there are to be a number of](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042000/5e6d17f1c530e44b500ad839/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
- 2 -
(a) the first reduction, to be made one year after the date of entry into force of the Treaty, i.e« on 1 January 1959, shall be equal to 10 per cent of the basic duty;
(b) at the time of each subsequent reduction, the Member States shall simultaneously:
» in the case of each product make a reduction of not less than 5 per cent of the basic duty where the duty applicable at the time when the reduction is effected is less than 30 per cent, and of not less than 10 per cent of the basio duty where the duty applicable at the date when the reduction is effected still exceeds 30 per cent;
- reduce all their duties and not only duties applicable to products originating in the overseas countries and territories, in such a way as to reduce by 10 per cent their total customs receipts (i.e. the total levy yielded as a result of the application of basic duties to the value of imports coming from other Member States during the year 1956).
(4) Member States may reduce their duties more rapidly if the general economic situation and the situation in the sector concerned so permit •
Taking these provisions into account, the elimination of duties has been computed, to serve as an indication, according to the rule referred to under (2) above.
3, The alignment of duties with the common external tariff has been computed in conformity with the provisions of Article 23, paragraphs 1 and 3 of the Treaty, subject to the possible application of Articles 24 and 26»
4. In the case of Italy, imports of items under consideration when ooming from Japan (except roundwood and squared, half-squared or sawn wood) and Chile are undwr licence; imports from Somaliland under Italian trusteeship are unrestricted»
