ker je treba definicijo pojma »izdelki s poreklom« popraviti, da bi zagotovili pravilno delovanje razširjenega sistema kumulacije, ki dovoljuje uporabo materialov s poreklom iz Slovenije, Litve, Evropske skupnosti, Poljske, Madžarske, Češke republike, Slovaške republike, Bolgarije, Romunije, Latvije, Estonije, Turčije, Evropskega gospodarskega prostora (v nadaljevanju EEA), Islandije, Norveške in Švice;

ker je priporočljivo popraviti člene, ki vsebujejo zneske, z namenom popolnega upoštevanja uveljavitve evra;

ker je treba, zato da bi upoštevali spremembe v metodah predelave in pomanjkanje določenih surovin, nekoliko popraviti seznam zahtevanih obdelav in predelav, ki jih morajo izpolnjevati materiali brez porekla, da lahko pridobijo status blaga s poreklom,

SKLENILI NASLEDNJE:

1. člen

Protokol 3 o definiciji pojma A izdelki s poreklom in načinih upravnega sodelovanja se spremeni in dopolni kot sledi:

1. V 21. in 26. členu se beseda »ekujev« nadomesti z »evrov«.

2. 30. člen se nadomesti z:

“ 30. člen

 Zneski, izraženi v evrih

1. Zneske v valuti države izvoznice, ki ustrezajo zneskom, izraženim v evrih, določi država izvoznica in jih sporoči državi uvoznici.

2. Kadar so zneski višji od ustreznih zneskov, ki jih je določila država uvoznica, jih mora slednja sprejeti, če so izdelki zaračunani v valuti države izvoznice. Kadar so izdelki zaračunani v valuti ene od držav, omenjenih v 3. in 4. členu, mora država uvoznica priznati zneske, ki jih je ta država notificirala.

3. Zneski, ki se uporabljajo v valuti katere koli države, so protivrednosti zneskov, izraženih v evrih, v valuti te države po tečaju na prvi delovni dan v oktobru 1999.

4. Skupni odbor na zahtevo Slovenije ali Litve pregleda v evrih izražene zneske in njihovo protivrednost v domačih valutah Litve in Slovenije. Skupni odbor ob tem pregledu zagotovi, da se zneski, ki jih je treba uporabljati, ne bodo znižali v domači valuti, in bo nadalje upošteval zaželeno ohranjanje realnih učinkov zadevnih vrednostnih omejitev. V ta namen se lahko odloči za spremembo zneskov, izraženih v evrih.”
