For those textile and clothing products not subject to specific measures under the Community’s trade policy and which are released for free circulation, the above Regulation provides both that exemption from the obligation to present a proof of origin may be granted and that the provisions establishing exemption from the obligation to present a certificate of origin should indicate if a declaration of origin is to be presented or not for such product. |

For reasons of clarity and legal certainty, Regulation (EC) No 2579/98 should be expressly repealed and replaced by the provisions of this Regulation. |
(4) |

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Customs Code Committee, |
