COUNCIL DECISION

of 24 September 1990

authorizing the United Kingdom to apply an optional measure derogating from Article 17 of the Sixth Directive (77/388/EEC) on the harmonization of the laws of the Member States relating to turnover taxes

(90/497/EEC)

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to the Sixth Council Directive (77/388/EEC) of 17 May 1977 on the harmonization of the laws of the Member States relating to turnover taxes - Common system of value added tax: uniform basis of assessment (1), hereinafter referred to as the 'Sixth Directive', and in particular Article 27 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas, under the terms of Article 27 (1) of the Sixth Directive, the Council, acting unanimously on a proposal from the Commission, may authorize any Member State to introduce special measures for derogation from the provisions of the Sixth Directive, in order to simplify the procedure for charging the tax or to prevent certain types of tax evasion or avoidance;

Whereas the United Kingdom was authorized by Decision 87/400/EEC (2), in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 27 (1), (2), (3) and (4) of the Sixth Directive to apply a measure derogating from Article 17 (1) of the Sixth Directive until 30 September 1990;

Whereas the United Kingdom, by means of a letter dated 21 May 1990 and received by the Commission on 28 May 1990, requested authorization to extend the said derogation until 31 December 1992;

Whereas the said derogation forms part of an optional system of taxation for undertakings with an annual turnover of less than £ 300 000 based on the third subparagraph of Article 10 (2) of the Sixth Directive, which grants the option of deferring payment of tax until receipt of the price;

Whereas the United Kingdom wishes to increase the turnover ceiling from £ 250 000 to £ 300 000 to take account of inflation;

Whereas that request can be accepted in view of the limited number of undertakings that have opted for this simplified scheme and the limited duration of this extension;

Whereas the derogation in question does not have a negative effect on the own resources of the European Communities accruing from value added tax,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

By way of derogation from Article 17 (1) of the Sixth Directive, the United Kingdom is hereby authorized, until 31 December 1992, to grant undertakings with an annual turnover of less than £ 300 000 the option of deferring deduction of tax until it is paid to the supplier.

Article 2

This Decision is addressed to the United Kingdom.

COMMISSION DECISION of 11 October 1990 authorizing the Federal Republic of Germany to permit temporarily the marketing of forestry seed not satisfying the requirements of Council Directive 71/161/EEC (Only the German text is authentic) (90/526/EEC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Directive 71/161/EEC of 30 March 1971 on external quality standards for forest reproductive material marketed within the Community (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3768/85 (2), and in particular Article 15 thereof,

Having regard to the request submitted by the Federal Republic of Germany,

Whereas in Germany the production of seed of Quercus pedunculata and Quercus sessiliflora satisfying the requirements laid down in Directive 71/161/EEC was insufficient in 1989 and is not adequate to supply Germany's needs;

Whereas it has not been possible to cover those needs satisfactorily at this stage by the use of seed from other Member States, or even from non-member countries, satisfying all the requirements laid down in the said Directive;

Whereas Germany should therefore be authorized to permit, for a limited period, the marketing of seed of the abovementioned species subject to less stringent requirements;

Whereas Council Directive 66/404/EEC on the marketing of forest reproductive reproduct material (3), as last amended by Directive 88/332/EEC (4), provides that reproductive material may be marketed only if it is accompanied by a document bearing certain details of the reproductive material in question;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Seeds and Propagating Material for Agriculture, Horticulture and Forestry,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

The Federal Republic of Germany is hereby authorized to permit the marketing on its territory of a maximum of 25 000 kilograms of seed of Quercus pedunculata Ehrh. and 20 000 kilograms of seed of Quercus sessiliflora Sal. which does not satisfy the requirements relating to specific purity in Annex I to Directive 71/161/EEC, provided that the following requirement is satisfied: the document required under Article 9 of Directive 66/404/EEC shall state: 'Seed not satisfying the standards in respect of specific purity'.

Article 2

The Federal Republic of Germany shall notify the Commission before 1 January 1992 of the quantities of seed marketed on its territory pursuant to this Decision. The Commission shall inform the other Member States thereof.

Article 3

The authorization provided for in Article 1, in so far as it concerns the first marketing, shall expire on 30 November 1991 and, in so far as it does not concern the first marketing, shall expire on 31 December 1993.

Article 4

This Decision is addressed to the Federal Republic of Germany.

COMMISSION DECISION of 30 November 1990 amending Decision 89/196/EEC, Euratom, ECSC laying down detailed rules for the declassification of documents covered by professional or business secrecy (90/631/Euratom, ECSC, EEC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC, Euratom) No 354/83 of 1 February 1983 concerning the opening to the public of the historical archives of the European Economic Community and the European Atomic Energy Community (1), and in particular Article 9 thereof,

Having regard to Commission Decision No 359/83/ECSC of 8 February 1983 concerning the opening to the public of the historical archives of the European Coal and Steel Community (2), and in particular Article 9 thereof,

Whereas, under the rules governing the opening to the public of the historical archives of the Communities, documents and records covered by the obligation of professional or business secrecy may not be released to the public unless the person or undertaking concerned does not object ; whereas, to this effect, the Commission must give notice of its intention to release the documents and records to the public;

Whereas with the opening to the public of the European Economic Community archives, the number of documents which may be declassified will increase considerably;

Whereas prior notification of the individual persons or undertakings concerned often proves difficult, especially in the event of a change of address or of legal status;

Whereas, to ensure that the procedure for opening the historical archives of the Communities to the public operates efficiently provision should be made to enable the Commission to inform the person or undertaking concerned by means of a notice published in the Official Journal of the European Communities,

HAS DECIDED AS FOLLOWS:

Article 1

Article 1 of Commission Decision 89/196/EEC, Euratom, ECSC (3) is hereby replaced by the following:

COMMISSION DECISION

of 25 July 1990

on the classification and labelling of Di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate in accordance with Article 23 of Council Directive 67/548/EEC

(90/420/EEC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Directive 67/548/EEC of 27 June 1967 on the approximation of laws, regulations and administrative provisions relating to the classification, packaging and labelling of dangerous substances (1), as last amended by Directive 79/831/EEC (2) and in particular Article 23 thereof,

Whereas the Kingdom of Denmark on the 13 August 1987 informed the Commission of its intention to lay down specific conditions on the marketing of 23 substances with reference to Article 23 of Directive 67/548/EEC on the grounds that these substances are not classified and labelled appropriately and therefore present a serious risk hazard for health;

Whereas the Commission has consulted with the Member States in accordance with the provisions of Article 23;

Whereas the Commission has examined the evidence for the carcinogenicity of di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate, and has consulted the appropriate experts designated by Member States and having special qualifications with respect to either carcinogenicity, mutagenicity and teratogenicity;

Whereas the advice of the majority of experts was that the evidence at the present time is inadequate to justify the classification and labelling of this substance as a carcinogen or as an irritant,

HAS ADOPTED THE FOLLOWING DECISION:

Article 1

Di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate shall not be classified or labelled as a carcinogenic or an irritant substance.

Article 2

The Kingdom of Denmark shall take the measures necessary to comply with this Decision not later than 1 January 1991.

Article 3

This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
