For example, according to ISS (1993), the sample RMG enterprises invested towards gross capital formation an amount equivalent to 19.13 per cent of annual output. More than 70 per cent of this amount was attributable to investment in machinery and equipment. 16. The EC agreed to a two-stage conversion (the so-called derogation). However, the derogation will be time-bound. Moreover, there is a possibility that a quota will be imposed on exports exceeding a certain amount. For details, see Rahman (1997). 17. For example, under the current rules of SAPTA, a 40 per cent local value addition is required to benefit from a preferential import tariff. 255
