COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 1275/84
of 7 May 1984
repealing the definitive anti-dumping duty on imports of standardized multi-phase electric motors having an output of more than 0,75 kW but not more than 75 kW, originating in the Soviet Union, and terminating the anti-dumping proceedings in respect of the said imports
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN
COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3017/79 of 20 December 1979 on protection against dumped or subsidized imports from countries not members of the European Economic Community (1), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1580/82 (2), and in particular Article 14 thereof.
Having regard to the proposal made by the Commission after consulting the Advisory Committee established by the abovementioned Regulation,
Whereas:
A. Definitive duty
(1) By Regulation (EEC) No 2075/82 (3), the Council imposed a definitive anti-dumping duty on imports of standardized multi-phase electric motors having an output of more than 0,75 kW but not more than 75 kW, falling within subheading ex 85.01 B I b) of the Common Customs Tariff, corresponding to NIMEXE codes 85.01-ex 33, ex 34 and ex 36, originating in the Soviet Union. The Regulation also contained an acceptance of undertakings to raise prices given by exporters from Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, the German Democratic Republic, Poland and Romania, and terminated the anti-dumping proceedings in respect of imports of these products originating in those countries.
B. Review
(2) The Soviet exporter of the products in question, Energomachexport, Moscow, asked the Commission to review the definitive anti-dumping duty.
C. Undertaking
(3) When requesting the review, the Soviet exporter offered an undertaking to comply voluntarily with minimum export prices. This undertaking should eliminate the injury caused to the Community industry by the exports in question.
(4) The Commission, after consultations, accordingly adopted Decision 84/189/EEC (4) accepting the undertaking given by the Soviet exporter.
D. Repeal of definitive anti-dumping duty
(5) The Council therefore considers that the definitive anti-dumping duty is no longer required to protect the Community interest. Therefore Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 2075/82 should be repealed.
(6) Definitive anti-dumping duties collected from 15 February 1984, the date on which the undertaking took effect, should be reimbursed,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 2075/82 is hereby repealed.
Article 2
Definitive anti-dumping duties collected as from 15 February 1984 pursuant to Regulation (EEC) No 2075/82 shall be reimbursed.
Article 3
The anti-dumping proceedings in respect of imports of standardized multi-phase electric motors having an output of more than 0,75 kW but not more than 75 kW, originating in the Soviet Union, are hereby terminated.
Article 4
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
Done at Brussels, 7 May 1984.

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 of 19 June 2001 on the common organisation of the markets in the sugar sector (1) and in particular the second indent of Article 27(5) thereof,

COMMISSION DECISION
of 22 December 2009
authorising Italy to use certain approximate estimates for the calculation of the VAT own resources base
(notified under document C(2009) 10426)
(Only the Italian text is authentic)
(2010/7/EU, Euratom)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Atomic Energy Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC, Euratom) No 1553/89 of 29 May 1989 on the definitive uniform arrangements for the collection of own resources accruing from value added tax (1), and in particular Article 6(3) thereof,
After consulting the Advisory Committee on Own Resources,
Whereas:
(1)
Under Article 371 of Council Directive 2006/112/EC of 28 November 2006 on the common system of value added tax (2), certain Member States may continue to exempt certain transactions. These transactions must be taken into account for the determination of the VAT own resources base.
(2)
By virtue of Article 371 of Directive 2006/112/EC, Italy may continue to exempt transactions listed in point 10 of part B of Annex X to that Directive.
(3)
Italy requested the Commission to be authorised to use certain approximate estimates for the calculation of the VAT own resources base since it is unable to make the precise calculation of the VAT own resources base for transactions referred to in point 10 of part B of Annex X to the VAT Directive. Such calculation is likely to involve an unjustified administrative burden in relation to the effect of these transactions on Italy’s total VAT own resources base. Italy is able to make a calculation using approximate estimates for this category of transactions. Italy should therefore be authorised to calculate the VAT own resource base using approximate estimates in accordance with the second indent of Article 6(3) of Regulation (EEC, Euratom) No 1553/89.
(4)
For reasons of transparency and legal certainty it is appropriate to limit the applicability of the authorisation in time,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
For the purpose of calculating the VAT own resources base from 1 January 2009, Italy is authorised, to use approximate estimates in respect of the following category of transactions referred to in part B of Annex X to Directive 2006/112/EC:
-
Transport of passengers (point 10).
Article 2
This Decision shall apply from 1 January 2009 to 31 December 2013.
Article 3
This Decision is addressed to the Italian Republic.

Whereas, by letter dated 10 April 1981, the United Kingdom has 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 "Akashi scanning electron microscope, model ISI-DS-130", to be used for research of ion implantation for corrosion resistance of oxide "glazes" and of initiation of atmospheric corrosion at individual sites, 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,
