            between the Parties in accordance with the consultation procedure established in Article 15 of the
            Agreement. Such growth rate may in no case be lower than the highest rate applied to corresponding
            products under bilateral agreements concluded under the Geneva Arrangement between the
            Community and other third countries having a level of trade equal to or comparable with that of
            Czechoslovakia .

            The Community declares that , in accordance with the Community rules on origin referred to in
            Article 1 ( 3 ) of the Agreement , any amendments to the said rules will remain based upon criteria not
            requiring, in order to confer originating status , more extensive operations than those which constitute
            a single complete process .

            The Community hereby declares that neither a lack of full information nor the giving of approximate
            information in box 8 of the export licence , nor the absence of details regarding the marks and numbers

            the Community authorities to issue an import authorization or document.
