ANNEX

Annexes I and II to Regulation (EEC) No 3030/93 are amended as follows:

(1)

Annex I is replaced by the following:‘ ANNEX I TEXTILE PRODUCTS REFERRED TO IN ARTICLE 1 (1) 1. Without prejudice to the rules for the interpretation of the combined nomenclature, the wording of the description of goods is considered to be of indicative value only, since the products covered by each category are determined, within this Annex, by CN codes. Where there is an “ex” symbol in front of a CN code, the products covered in each category are determined by the scope of the CN code and by that of the corresponding description. 2. When the constitutive material of the products of categories 1 to 114 is not specifically mentioned, these products shall be taken to be made exclusively of wool or of fine animal hair, of cotton or of man-made fibres. 3. Garments which are not recognisable as being garments for men or boys or as being garments for women or girls are classified with the latter. 4. Where the expression “babies’ garments” is used, this is meant to cover garments up to and including commercial size 86.
