The arrangement also provided for the periodic updating of prices to take account of changes in raw cotton prices in Turkey which would have corresponding effects on prices of cotton yarn in Turkey. Regulation (EEC) No 789/82, however, continued to apply for those goods which had already been intro- duced into the customs territory of the Commu- nity but not yet released into free circulation.
