Uruguay Round: pre-shipment inspections for exports from the Community

Parliament approved the Commission's proposal subject to the three amendments it had introduced. These amendments: - called for the activities carried out by the pre-shipment inspection entities, which are the subject of the Directive, to include exchange-rate controls, financial conditions and customs classification; - called on the Commission and the Council to notify Parliament annually, on the basis of updated statistics, of the measures and modifications applied, together with the associated administrative costs. �
