Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2075/92 of 30 June 1992 on the common organisation of the market in raw tobacco(1), and in particular Article 9(4) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 9 of Regulation (EEC) No 2075/92 introduces production quotas for the different groups of varieties of tobacco.

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 1208/81 (2) established the Community scale for the classification of carcases of adult bovine animals;
Whereas, in view of the genetic improvements resulting from cattle breeding, the Community scale for the classification of carcases of adult bovine animals should be adjusted so as to take account of the existence of animals of the double-muscled type; whereas, to that end, provision should be made for the optional introduction of a conformation class above the existing ones,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION: Article 1
Regulation (EEC) No 1208/81 is hereby amended as follows:

B. carcases of other uncastrated male animals;
C. carcases of castrated male animals;
D. carcases of female animals that have calved;
E. carcases of other female animals.
Without prejudice to the intervention rules applying, the letters A, B, C, D and E shall be used to identify carcases as from 1 January 1992.
Criteria shall be laid down for differentiating between categories of carcases in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 27 of Regulation (EEC) No 805/68.
2. The carcases of adult bovine animals shall be classified by successive assessment of:
(a) conformation;
(b) fat cover,
as defined in Annexes I and II respectively.
The conformation class designated in Annex I by the letter S may be used by Member States to take account, through the optional introduction of a conformation class superior to the existing classes (double-muscled carcases), of the characteristics or expected development of a particular form of production.
Member States which intend to make use of this possibility shall notify the Commission and the other Member States accordingly.
3. Member States shall be authorized to subdivide each of the classes provided for in Annexes I and II into a maximum of three sub-classes.';
2. Annex I is replaced by the Annex appearing in the Annex hereto. Article 2

COMMISSION DECISION
of 20 June 1983
establishing that the apparatus described as 'SLM - Spectrofluorometer, model SLM 4800S' may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties
(83/324/EEC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN
COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1798/75 of 10 July 1975 on the importation free of Common Customs Tariff duties of educational, scientific and cultural materials (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 608/82 (2),
Having regard to Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2784/79 of 12 December 1979 laying down provisions for the implementation of Regulation (EEC) No 1798/75 (3), and in particular Article 7 thereof,
Whereas, by letter dated 13 December 1982, the Federal Republic of Germany requested the Commission to invoke the procedure provided for in Article 7 of Regulation (EEC) No 2784/79 in order to determine whether or not the apparatus described as 'SLM - Spectrofluorometer, model SLM 4800S', ordered in March 1980 and intended to be used for the studies of the structure of proteins and the measurement of the life times of the fluorescent states of excited molecules in proteins and nucleic acids or nucleotides in the subnanosecond region, should be considered to be a scientific apparatus and, where the reply is in the affirmative, whether apparatus of equivalent scientific value is currently being manufactured in the Community;
Whereas, in accordance with the provisions of Article 7 (5) of Regulation (EEC) No 2784/79, a group of experts composed of representatives of all the Member States met on 30 May 1983 within the framework of the Committee on Duty-Free Arrangements to examine the matter;
Whereas this examination showed that the apparatus in question is a spectrofluorometer; whereas its objective technical characteristics, such as the very high resolution power, and the use to which it is put make it specially suited to scientific research; whereas, moreover, apparatus of the same kind are principally used for scientific activities; whereas it must therefore be considered to be a scientific apparatus;
Whereas, however, on the basis of information received from Member States, apparatus of scientific value equivalent to the said apparatus, capable of being used for the same purposes, are currently being manufactured in the Community; whereas this applies, in particular, to the apparatus 'SP-7X' and 'SP-8X' manufactured by Applied Photophysics Ltd, 20 Albemarle Street, UK-London W1X 3HA,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
The apparatus described as 'SLM - Spectrofluorometer, model SLM 4800S', which is the subject of an application by the Federal Republic of Germany of 13 December 1982, may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.
Article 2
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
