COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 282/92 of 3 February 1992 supplementing and amending Regulations (EEC) No 3587/91 and (EEC) No 3588/91 extending into 1992 the application of Regulations (EEC) No 3831/90, (EEC) No 3832/90, (EEC) No 3833/90, (EEC) No 3834/90 and (EEC) No 3835/90 applying generalized tariff preferences for 1991 in respect of certain products originating in developing countries
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Articles 113 and 43 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (1),
Whereas Albania has seen its economic situation decline to the point where this country is facing problems similar to those of countries which in the past have benefited from generalized preferences;
Whereas Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania have regained their independence and have also seen their economic situation decline to the point where these three countries are facing problems similar to those of countries which in the past have benefited from generalized preferences;
Whereas Albania, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania should therefore benefit, on a transitional basis, from the system of generalized preferences in order to increase their exports with a view to stimulating their economic development, to promote their industrialization and to accelerate their growth rate;
Whereas the benefit of tariff preferences has been suspended on a temporary basis with respect to the Republic of Korea on account of the discriminatory treatment applied in that country to the Community in the sphere of intellectual property; whereas, that discriminatory treatment having been terminated, there are no grounds for maintaining the suspension,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The following shall be added to Article 4 of Regulation (EEC) No 3587/91 (2):
'Annex III part A, of Regulation (EEC) No 3831/90, Annex V, part A, of Regulation (EEC) No 3832/90, Annex III, part A, of Regulation (EEC) No 3833/90, shall be supplemented by the mention of the following countries:
053 Estonia
054 Latvia
055 Lithuania
070 Albania.'
The text of footnote (c) to Annex II to Regulation (EEC) No 3833/90 shall be replaced by the following:
'(c) Preferences are not to be granted in respect of products marked with two asterisks originating in Estonia, Greenland, Latvia, Lithuania or Poland.'
Paragraph 3 of Article 1 of Regulations (EEC) No 3381/90, (EEC) No 3832/90 and (EEC) No 3833/90 shall be deleted.

COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 1886/94 of 27 July 1994 amending Regulation (EEC) No 3013/89 on the common organization of the market in sheepmeat and goatmeat
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 43 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (1),
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (2),
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee (3),
Whereas Article 7 (2) and (3) of Regulation (EEC) No 3013/89 (4) stipulates certain conditions to be fulfilled prior to the opening of private storage within the framework of a tendering procedure; whereas experience has shown that the price condition established in Article 7 (2) is inappropriate; whereas it is therefore necessary to reduce the price ratio at which the condition for the opening of a private storage tendering procedure is fulfilled; whereas the activation of private storage measures provided for in Article 7 (3) should be deleted,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Article 7 of Regulation (EEC) No 3013/89 is hereby amended as follows:

COMMISSION DECISION
of 30 November 1982
establishing that the 'Space Optics - Off-Axis Parabolas, model OAP 18-01-08' may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties
(82/843/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 19 May 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 'Space Optics - Off-Axis Parabolas, model OAP 18-01-08', ordered on 16 October 1980 and to be used for the development of new procedures and techniques in earth-oriented space research, should be considered as 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 22 October 1982, within the framework of the Committee on Duty-Free Arrangements, to examine the matter;
Whereas this examination showed that the 'Space Optics - Off-Axis Parabolas, model OAP 18-01-08' may not be regarded as an instrument or apparatus within the meaning of Article 3 (1) of the aforementioned Regulation (EEC) No 1798/75 but consists in fact of an accessory of an holographic system; whereas the latter must therefore be regarded as 'accessory' within the meaning of Article 3 (2) (a) of the said Regulation; whereas the possibility of granting importation free of duties must therefore be assessed in the light of the provisions of the said Article 3 (2) (a);
Whereas the accessory in question is not suitable for use with an instrument or apparatus imported free of duties or capable of being so imported; whereas, therefore, the conditions for import free of duties are not fulfilled,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
The 'Space Optics - Off-Axis Parabolas, model OAP 18-01-08', which is the subject of an application by the Federal Republic of Germany of 19 May 1982, may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.
