Suite 707

Washington , DC 20037

Dear Sir Roy

This is in response to your letter of 29 March 1983 transmitting to the US Government a revised version of Appendix B to the Arrangement concerning trade in certain steel products between the European Communities and the United States . I am pleased to confirm that the revised Appendix B reflects the agreement reached by both parties in January to make certain amendments to the NIMEXE codes referred to in Appendix B .

The above is without prejudice to changes that may be required to cover any discrepancy in Appendix B found by either party subsequent to the January agreement .

Sincerely ,

Lionel H. OLMER
