The Government of Sweden will not admit imports of the
cotton garments and made-ups of Hong Kong origin listed in the
Annex unless such imports are covered by a Hong Kong export licence
endorsed by the Commerce and Industry Department, Hong Kong, that
the consignments concerned have been debited to the agreed limits.
8.
The Government of Sweden will so far as possible inform
the Hong Kong Government when imports into Sweden of cotton garments
and made-ups that have been debited to the agreed limits are sub-
sequently re-exported from Sweden. The Hong Kong Government may
then credit the quantities involved to the appropriate limits.

The Hong Kong Government will provide the Government of
Sweden with fortnightly statistics of exports of the cotton garments
and made-ups listed in the Annex that have been licensed for export
to Sweden debited to the limits set out in column (d) of the Annex.

Government with quarterly statistics of total imports and of imports
from other significant suppliers of each of the items listed in the

The Governments of Sweden and Hong Kong agree to consult
together, at the request of either party, on any matter arising from
the implementation of these arrangements.

If the Hong Kong Government consider that, as a result of the
restraint imposed by these arrangements, Hong Kong is being placed in
an inequitable position vis a vis any third country, the Hong Kong
Government may request the Government of Sweden to consult with a view
to appropriate remedial action such as a reasonable modification of
these arrangements.
