───────────────────────────
Dear Mr. Macpherson:
I have the honour to refer to recent discussions in Ottawa betw-
een officials of the Government of the republic of China and the
Government of Canada concerning the Canadian Government's reque-
st that the Chinese Government restrain exports of woven fabric
polyester／Polynosic shirts from Taiwan, Republic of China to C-
anada.
As a result of these discussions the Chinese Government agrees
to restrain exports to Canada of polyester/polynosic as well as
polyester/cotton shirts and to continue to restrain polyester/
cotton trousers, slacks and shorts to the levels indicated in t-
he attached Annex during the two-year period beginning October
10,1969.
It is the understanding of the Chinese Government that the Chie-
se and Canadian Governments shall consult with each other on an-
y question arising from the implementation of this agreement if
either Government deems such consultation necessary.
Would you please confirm that the foregoing is acceptable to Ca-
nadian Goyern-ment
Yours very truly,
(Signed)
K.T.Hu

Re: Cotton and Rayon Textile Products

Dear Mr. Macpherson:
I have the honour to refer to recent discussions in Ottawa betw-
een the officials of the Government of the Republic of China and
the Government of Canada concerning the request of the Canadian
Government that the Chinese Government apply restraints on expo-
rts of certain cotton and rayon textile products to Canada.
As a result of these discussions and pursuant to the provisions
of the Long-Term Arrangement Regarding International Trade in C-
otton Textiles (hereinafter referred to as the Arrangement) the
Chinese Government agrees to restrain exports to Canada of these
textile products specified in the attached Annex to the levels
indicated there in during the two twelve-month periods beginning
July 1, 1969 and July 1, 1970.
It is the understanding of the Chinese Government that the Chin-
ese and Canadian Governments shall consult with each other on a-
ny question arising from the implementation of this agreement if
either Government deems such consultation necessary.
It is further understood that the Canadian Government may reque-
st consultations regarding further export restraints under the
provisions of the Arrangement should circumstances warrant this,
and that the Chinese Government may request consultations conce-
rning the removal and modifications of export restraints under
the provisions of the Arrangement should circumstances warrant
this.
Would you please confirm that the foregoing is acceptable to the
Canadian Government.
Yours very truly,
(Signed)
