COMMISSION DECISION

of 7 April 1983

establishing that the apparatus described as 'PHI - Multiprobe, model 595' may be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties

(83/178/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 30 September 1982, 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 'PHI - Multiprobe, model 595', ordered on 21 November 1980 and intended to be used for carrying out unique studies on the immediate and non- pretreated surfaces of radioactive substances or their cladding materials, 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;

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 21 March 1983, within the framework of the Committee on Duty-Free Arrangements, to examine the matter;

Whereas this examination showed that the apparatus in question is an analysis system;

Whereas its objective technical characteristics, such as the very high resolution power, and the use to which it is put make it specially suited to scientific research; whereas, moreover, apparatus of the same kind are principally used for scientific activities; whereas it must therefore be considered to be a scientific apparatus;

Whereas, on the basis of information received from Member States, apparatus of equivalent scientific value capable of use for the same purpose is not currently manufactured in the Community; whereas, therefore, duty-free admission of this apparatus is justified,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

The apparatus described as 'PHI - Multiprobe, model 595', which is the subject of an application by the Federal Republic of Germany of 30 September 1982, may be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.

Article 2

This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

Article 2

The animal health certificate mentioned in Council Directive 64/432/EEC and accompanying the pigs sent from the Federal Republic of Germany must be completed in the following manner: 'animals conforming to Commission Decision of 21 April 1983'.
