Whereas the products falling within category 28 exported from Pakistan on or after 25 March 1994 must be set off against the quantitative limit fixed for the period 25 March to 31 December 1994;

Whereas the quantitative limit for imports of products falling within category 28 should not prevent the importation of products covered by it shipped from Pakistan before the entry into force of Regulation (EC) No 1134/94 or between 25 June 1994 and the date of entry into force of the present Regulation;
