Sir,

I have the honour to refer to the negotiations held on 30-31 October 1995 between our respective Delegations with a view to amending the Additional Protocol on trade in textile products between the European Community and Romania, applied since 1 May 1993, as last amended by the Agreement in the form of an Exchange of Letters initialled on 2 December 1994. These negotiations were held in the context of Article 1, paragraph 3, of the aforesaid Additional Protocol.

2. During these negotiations both Parties noted with satisfaction the way in which the Additional Protocol has, in general, been implemented.

3. In order to foster the development of further mutually beneficial trade flows it was agreed to amend the Additional Protocol as follows:

3.1. The first subparagraph of Article 2, paragraph 3 of the Protocol is replaced by the following:

"3. The origin of the products covered by this Protocol shall be determined in accordance with the rules of non-preferential origin in force in the Community."

3.2. Article 2, paragraph 3 of Appendix A is replaced by the following:

"The certificate of origin referred to in paragraph 1 above is not required for the importation of goods covered by a movement certificate EUR1 or a form EUR2 issued in conformity with Protocol No 4 to the Europe Agreement in cases where those documents clearly establish that Romania is to be considered as the country of origin on the basis of the rules on non-preferential origin in force in the Community."

3.3. Annex II (EU direct quotas) is replaced by Appendix 1 attached.

3.4. The Annex to Appendix B concerning outward processing traffic is replaced by Appendix 2 attached (OPT quotas).

4. I should be obliged if you would kindly confirm the acceptance of your Government of the foregoing. Should this be the case, this letter, completed by its Appendices, Agreed Minutes and your written confirmation, will constitute an Agreement in the form of an Exchange of Letters between the Community and Romania. This Agreement shall enter into force on the first day of the month following that in which the European Community and Romania notify each other that they have completed the necessary internal procedures to this effect. In the meantime, the amendments to the Additional Protocol will apply on a provisional basis from 1 January 1996, on the conditions to be specified in an Exchange of Notes (see Appendix 3), provided that they are applied on a reciprocal basis.

Please accept, Sir, the assurance of my highest consideration.
