Article 1
The export of waste listed in Annex II to Regulation (EEC) No 259/93 and mentioned in Annex A to this Regulation to countries listed in said Annex A shall be prohibited.
Article 2
The control procedure laid down in Article 15 of Regulation (EEC) No 259/93 shall apply to exports to the countries listed in Annex B to this Regulation with respect to those categories of waste destined for recovery only and listed in Annex II to Regulation (EEC) No 259/93.
Article 3
The Commission shall determine, in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 18 of Council Directive 75/442/EEC of 15 July 1975 on waste ( 7 ), and in cooperation with the country concerned, which of the control procedures shall apply, that is to say:
the procedure applicable to wastes listed in Annex III or Annex IV to Regulation (EEC) No 259/93, or
the procedure laid down in Article 15 of Regulation (EEC) No 259/93, or
