COMMISSION DECISION of 8 October 1981 establishing that the apparatus described as "MKS sensor head, model 94 BH with electronics unit, model 170 M-34B" may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties (81/842/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 1 April 1981, the Federal Republic of Germany 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 "MKS sensor head, model 94 BH with electronics unit, model 170 M-34B", to be used for gas pressure measurements, 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 9 July 1981 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 manometer with an electronic unit;
Whereas it does not have the requisite objective characteristics making it specifically suited to scientific research ; whereas, moreover, apparatus of the same kind are principally used for non-scientific activities ; whereas its use in the case in question could not alone confer upon it the character of a scientific apparatus ; whereas it therefore cannot be regarded as a scientific apparatus ; whereas the duty-free admission of the apparatus in question is therefore not justified,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
The apparatus described as "MKS sensor head, model 94 BH with electronics unit, model 170 M-34B", which is the subject of an application by the Federal Republic of Germany of 1 April 1981, may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.
Article 2
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 1026/84 of 31 March 1984 amending Regulation (EEC) No 2742/75 on production refunds in the cereals and rice sectors
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2727/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organization of the market in cereals (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1018/84 (2), and in particular Article 11 (4) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 2742/75 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1569/83 (4), fixes the premiums to be paid to producers of potato starch in 1983/84 ; whereas the premium is intended to take account of the special position of the potato starch industry in relation to other sectors of the starch industry ; whereas, since the relative situation of the starch industries has not significantly changed over the last marketing year, the premium for the potato starch sector should be maintained at its present level in 1984/85;
Whereas, as from the beginning of the 1984/85 marketing year, the market price for rice will go down by approximately 1 % ; whereas the maize starch industry would thus enjoy an advantage, in terms of competition, over potato starch;
Whereas the balanced relationship between the production prices for the raw materials used for the manufacture of maize starch and potato starch should be maintained ; whereas the minimum price for potatoes, to be paid by the potato starch industry to potato producers, should therefore be reduced,

Whereas the equivalent value of the ecu in certain national currencies on 1 October 1988 was less than the corresponding value on 1 October 1986; whereas the automatic change in the base date would, in the case of conversion into the national currencies concerned, have the effect of reducing the limits which permit the presentation of simplified documentary evidence; whereas, in order to avoid this effect, it is necessary to increase such limits expressed in ecus,
