Brief description of the Agreement:  
 
AAP.CE 27 (Articles 7 and 8 of the TM80)  
 
Partial Scope Economic Complementarity Agreement No. 27 (AAP.CE 27) is intended to 
improve economic and trade relations betwe en the Parties through the elimination of 
non-tariff restrictions and the strengthening of negotiated preferences.  
 
To this end, a trade liberalization programme is established in Annexes I and II. In addition, 
where the general origin rules are concerned, application of Resolution 78 of the Committee 
of Representatives is stipulated, along with the adoption of Resolution 70 of the same body 
on safeguard clauses.  
 
Upon the entry into force of the AAP.CE 39, on 16 August 1999, the tariff 
preference s negotiated in this Agreement and the associated regulatory aspects 
ceased to have effect. However, the provisions dealing with matters not covered by 
the AAP.CE 39 and those that are not incompatible with that Agreement remain in 
force.
