Mr. Chairman,
With reference to the question from the Textiles Monitoring Body regarding the list of textile
lines to be integrated by Honduras pursuant to Articles 2.8(a) and 2.11 of the WTO Agreement on
Textiles and Clothing, the Government of Honduras wishes to make the following clarifications:
1. As in the first stage of Honduras' integration, the lack of statistical data for the
Harmonized System (H.S.) in 1990 obliged us to apportion the total imports under aCCCN line among the various equivalent tariff lines of the H.S. integrated.  This
explains why the data on imports are identical for certain tariff lines.
2. In the case of lines ex. 3921.12. ex. 3921.13 and ex 3921.90. the products contained
in these lines were taken into consideration and included in the list to be integrated inaccordance with the explanatory notes of the H.S.  The imports indicated in the list
are not the total amount for the tariff line in question but are an estimate of imports
corresponding to the precise description of the product, in conformity with the Annex
to the WTO Agreement on Textiles and Clothing.  This is why the list submitted by
Honduras indicates that the heading 3921.90 only concerns the tariff line 3921.90.30.
Accept, Mr. Chairman, the assurances of my highest consideration.
