COMMISSION DECISION
of 28 January 1983
establishing that the apparatus described as 'Nicolet - Evoked Potential System, model CA-1000' may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties
(83/59/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 23 July 1982, Italy 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 'Nicolet - Evoked Potential System, model CA-1000', ordered on 29 September 1980 and intended for use in the examination of pathogenetic theories on evolutive dyslexia and on evolutive dysphasia, in the examination of the correlations between neuropsychological disturbances and neurological damage and, in particular, in the recording of the cerebral potentials evoked, 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 15 December 1982 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 clinical system;
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 'Nicolet - Evoked Potential System, model CA-1000', which is the subject of an application by Italy of 23 July 1982, may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.
Article 2
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
