on application of the common intervention price for olive oil in Portugal
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal, and in particular Article 234 (3) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (1),
Whereas the achievement of the Single Market makes it desirable to remove all barriers to trade, not only between the Member States of the Community as constituted on 31 December 1985 but also, as far as possible, between those Member States and the new Member States;
Whereas, under the Act of Accession, alignment on the common price of the Portuguese olive oil price is to be gradually achieved in a period up to the beginning of the 1995/96 marketing year; whereas, until that date, accession compensatory amounts therefore are applicable to trade between those countries and the other Member States;
Whereas, however, while maintaining the production aid and consumption aid at the level laid down by the Act of Accession, early alignment may be envisaged, of the Portuguese price on the common price, in view of the rebalancing provided for in Council Regulation (EEC) No 2047/92 of 30 June 1992 fixing the prices, aids and percentages of aid to be retained in the olive-oil sector for the 1992/93 marketing year (2),
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The common intervention price for olive oil shall be applicable in Portugal.
Article 2
Transitional measures required to ensure a smooth changeover from the arrangements specified in Article 290 of the Act of Accession to those of this Regulation, in particular to prevent a deflection of normal trade flows between Portugal and the other Member States, shall be adopted in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 38 of Regulation (EEC) No 136/66/EEC (3).
Article 3
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day following 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.

Whereas, in order to ensure compliance with the provisions relating to the quantitative limitations on catches of stocks subject to quotas, it is necessary for the Commission to fix the date by which catches made by vessels flying the flag of a Member State are deemed to have exhausted the quota allocated;
Whereas, according to the information communicated to the Commission, catches of common sole in the waters of ICES division VII a by vessels flying the flag of Belgium or registered in Belgium have reached the quota allocated for 1998; whereas Belgium has prohibited fishing for this stock as from 29 November 1998; whereas it is therefore necessary to abide by that date,

COMMISSION DECISION
of 21 June 1982
establishing that the 'EMI - UV and Solar Blind Photomultiplier Tube, model G 26 E 314 LF' may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties
(82/428/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 amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1027/79 (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 11 December 1981, the United Kingdom 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 'EMI - UV and Solar Blind Photomultiplier Tube, model G 26 E 314 LF', ordered on 28 May 1981 and to be used for research into fluorescence of small molecules excited in the gas phase by absorption of intense UV light, 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 7 June 1982 within the framework of the Committee on Duty-Free Arrangements to examine the matter;
Whereas this examination showed that the 'EMI - UV and Solar Blind Photomultiplier Tube, model G 26 E 314 LF', 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 a dye laser; whereas the latter must therefore be regarded as an '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 'EMI - UV and Solar Blind Photomultiplier Tube, model G 26 E 314 LF', which is subject of an application by the United Kingdom of 11 December 1981, may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.
