COMMISSION DECISION of 23 March 1979 refusing to accept the scientific character of the apparatus described as "Digital-Computersystem PDP - 11T34-FB" (79/374/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),

Having regard to Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3195/75 of 2 December 1975 laying down provisions for the implementation of Regulation (EEC) No 1798/75 (2), and in particular Articles 4 and 5 thereof,

Whereas, by letter dated 22 September 1978, the German Government requested the Commission to invoke the procedure laid down in Articles 4 and 5 of Regulation (EEC) No 3195/75 in order to determine whether or not the apparatus described as "Digital-Computersystem PDP - 11T34-FB", intended for use as a demonstration and practice computer in the course of EDP training and, in particular, for model tests in computer-aided education and for the development of teaching/learning programmes for scholastic purposes, 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 4 (5) of Regulation (EEC) No 3195/75, a group of experts composed of representatives of all the Member States met on 7 February 1979 within the Committee on Duty-Free Arrangements to examine this particular case;

Whereas this examination showed that the apparatus in question is in current use and does not have any special characteristics rendering it specifically suited to pure scientific research ; whereas it can be used in very many areas of data processing ; whereas its use in the case in question could not alone confer upon it the character of a scientific apparatus specifically suited to pure scientific research ; whereas it therefore cannot be regarded as a scientific apparatus,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

The apparatus described as "Digital-Computersystem PDP - 11T34-FB" is not considered to be a scientific apparatus.

Article 2

This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
