欧盟委员会表示，欧盟将允许已在运输途中的两类超配额中国纺织品进口。此前，欧盟与中国6月达成协议，对10类中国纺织品和服装设定年度进口限制。部分货物因进口商赶在协议签署后抢运致超量，最终决定9月初与中方协商确定。
The European Commission, the executive arm of the European Union (EU), said on Tuesday that the EU would allow imports of two categories of quota-exceeded Chinese textiles which are already in shipment.
The EU and China reached an agreement in Shanghai in June whichset annual import restrictions for 10 categories of Chinese textiles and clothing products.
Category 5 (pullovers) and Category 6 (trousers) have reached the quantitative limits for 2005, according to the commission.
However, a number of shipments of the two categories of Chinesetextiles are still on the way to the European markets.
"The problem has been caused by importers trying to beat the restrictions after the Shanghai Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) was signed on June 10," said EU Trade Commissioner Peter Mandelsonin a statement.
"We will not know the full extent of the problem until data hasbeen collected after the middle of this month. In the meantime, shipments originating from the time of the signing of the MOU until July 11 have been allowed into Europe," said the commissioner.
"Final decisions, including some flexibility on the future management of the quotas will not be taken until early September and will be resolved in agreement with the Chinese authorities," he added.
