(notified under document number C(2005) 4424)
(Only the Latvian text is authentic)
(2005/817/EC, Euratom)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
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 13 thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
Under Article 28(3) of Sixth Council Directive 77/388/EEC of 17 May 1977 on the harmonisation of the laws of the Member States relating to turnover taxes - Common system of value added tax: uniform basis of assessment (2), hereinafter called ‘the sixth Directive’, the Member States may continue to exempt or tax certain transactions; these transactions must be taken into account for the determination of the VAT resources base.
(2)
For the application of the provisions in Article 28(3) of the sixth Directive, paragraph 1 of Section 7 (Taxation) of Annex VIII to the Act of Accession of the Republic of Latvia to the European Communities (3), authorises the Republic of Latvia to exempt certain transactions listed in Annex F to the sixth Directive.
(3)
The Republic of Latvia is unable to make a precise calculation of the VAT own resources base for certain categories of transactions listed in Annex F, point 2 and 17, to the sixth Directive; such calculation is likely to involve an unjustified administrative burden in relation to the effect of these transactions on the Republic of Latvia’s total VAT resources base; the Republic of Latvia is able to make a calculation using approximate estimates for these categories of transactions listed in Annex F to the sixth Directive; the Republic of Latvia should therefore be authorized to calculate the VAT base using approximate estimates in accordance with the second indent of Article 6(3) of Regulation (EEC, Euratom) No 1553/89.
(4)
The Advisory Committee on Own Resources has approved the report recording the opinions of its members on this Decision,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
For the purpose of calculating the VAT own resources base from 1 May 2004, the Republic of Latvia is authorized, in accordance with the second indent of Article 6(3) of Regulation (EEC, Euratom) No 1553/89, to use approximate estimates in respect of the following categories of transactions referred to in Annex F to the sixth Directive:
1.
Services supplied by authors, artists and performers (Annex F, point 2);
2.
Passenger transport (Annex F, point 17).
Article 2
This Decision is addressed to the Republic of Latvia.

COMMISSION DECISION of 5 March 1981 establishing that the apparatus described as "Perkin Elmer-Sigma 10 chromatography data station" may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties (81/173/EEC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

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 25 October 1980, the Italian Government 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 "Perkin Elmer-Sigma 10 chromatography data station", to be used for recording and processing of extremely accurate gas or liquid chromatography data, 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 29 January 1981, within the framework of the Committee on Duty-Free Arrangements, to examine the matter;

The apparatus described as "Perkin Elmer-Sigma 10 chromatography data station", which is the subject of an application by the Italian Government of 25 October 1980, may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.
