Whereas, by letter dated 23 December 1981, Italy 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 'Cryotronics - Variable Temperature Cryogenic System, model LTS-21-D70C', ordered on 5 September 1980 and to be used for the study of radioactive half-lives and ionic thermocurrents, 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;
