This is the original version (as it was originally made). This item of legislation is currently only available in its original format.
5.2. Without prejudice to Note 5.3, materials which are not classified within Chapters 50 to 63 may be used freely in the manufacture of textile goods, whether or not they contain textiles.
Example:
If a condition in the tables provides that, for a particular textile item (such as trousers), yarn must be used, this does not prevent the use of metal items, such as buttons, because buttons are not classified within Chapters 50 to 63. For the same reason, it does not prevent the use of slide-fasteners, even though slide-fasteners normally contain textiles.
