COMMISSION DECISION

of 21 December 1981

establishing that the apparatus described as 'Unigon waterfall sonogram frequency analysis system, model BC-1' may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties

(82/58/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 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 6 July 1981, the Government of 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 'Unigon waterfall sonogram frequency analysis system, model BC-1', to be used for the analysis of animal signals, 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 18 November 1981 within the framework of the Committee on Duty-Free Arrangements to examine the matter;

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

Whereas it does not have the requisite objective characteristics making it specifically suited to scientific research; whereas, moreover, apparatus of the same kind are principally used for non-scientific activities; whereas its use in the case in question could not alone confer upon it the character of a scientific apparatus; whereas it therefore cannot be regarded as a scientific apparatus; whereas the duty-free admission of the apparatus in question is therefore not justified,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

The apparatus described as 'Unigon waterfall sonogram frequency analysis system, model BC-1', which is the subject of an application by the Federal Republic of Germany of 6 July 1981, may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.

Article 2

This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

COMMISSION DECISION

of 29 January 1982

approving a programme for the fruit-juice industry in Lower Saxony pursuant to Council Regulation (EEC) No 355/77

(Only the German text is authentic)

(82/104/EEC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 355/77 of 15 February 1977 on common measures to improve the conditions under which agricultural products are processed and marketed (1) and in particular Article 5 thereof,

Whereas the Government of the Federal Republic of Germany on 6 July 1981 notified the programme for the fruit-juice industry in Lower Saxony;

Whereas the said programme concerns the construction and rationalization of sufficient manufacturing capacity for fruit-juice, with the aim of stabilizing the fruit market in Lower Saxony and guaranteeing satisfactory earnings for fruit producers; whereas it therefore constitutes a programme within the meaning of Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 355/77;

Whereas approval of the programme does not affect the decisions which are taken pursuant to Article 14 of Regulation (EEC) No 355/77 on the Community financing of projects, in particular as regards an examination as to whether the new capacities will actually find the sales outlets envisaged in the programme.

Whereas the programme contains the details referred to in Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 355/77, showing that the objectives laid down in Article 1 of the said Regulation can be achieved in respect of the sector in question, Lower Saxony; whereas the scheduled time for implementation of the programme does not exceed the limit laid down in Article 3 (1) (g) of the Regulation;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Agricultural Structure,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

The programme communicated by the Government of the Federal Republic of Germany on 6 July 1981 for the fruit-juice sector in Lower Saxony pursuant to Regulation (EEC) No 355/77 is hereby approved.

establishing that the apparatus described as 'Quanta Ray Nd: YAG laboratory laser system, model DCR-1A' may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties

(82/83/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 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 19 June 1981, 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 'Quanta Ray Nd: YAG laboratory laser system, model DCR-1A', to be used for the study of the chemiluminescent atomic reactions and in particular for the deactivation of excited iodine atoms by means of chemical and physical quenching, the formation of excited iodine molecules and the monitoring of chemiluminescence, 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 15 December 1981 within the framework of the Committee on Duty-Free Arrangements to examine the matter;

Whereas this examination showed that the apparatus in question is a laser; whereas its objective technical characteristics such as the quality of the emissions 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, however, on the basis of information received from Member States, apparatus of scientific value equivalent to the said apparatus, capable of being used for the same purposes, are currently being manufactured in the Community; whereas this applies, in particular, to the apparatus 'Laser à YAG 10Hz', manufactured by Quantel, 17, avenue de l'Atlantique, ZI 91400 Orsay, France,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

The apparatus described as 'Quanta Ray Nd: YAG laboratory laser system, model DCR-1A', which is the subject of an application by the Federal Republic of Germany of 19 June 1981, may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.

COMMISSION DECISION

of 8 February 1982

extending the authorization of the joint selling of fuels from Houillères du Bassin de Lorraine and Saarbergwerke AG by 'Saarlor'

(Only the French and German texts are authentic)

(82/146/ECSC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Coal and Steel Community, and in particular Article 65 thereof,

Having regard to the application of 21 December 1981,

Whereas by Decision No 44-59 of 4 November 1959 (1), as last amended by Decision 79/983/ECSC (2), the Commission authorized the joint selling of fuels from Houillères du Bassin de Lorraine and Saarbergwerke AG by the Saar-Lothringische Kohlenunion, deutsch-franzoesische Gesellschaft auf Aktion/Union charbonnière sarro-lorraine, société par actions franco-allemande (Saarlor), of Saarbruecken und Strasbourg;

Whereas the period of validity of this authorization was last extended, until 31 December 1981, by Decision 79/983/ECSC;

Whereas in a letter dated 21 December 1981 the parties concerned gave notice that the joint selling agreement concluded between them, which was due to expire on 31 December of that year, would be replaced by a new agreement valid until 31 December 1986; whereas they applied for a corresponding extension of the authorization;

Whereas the grounds on which the Commission authorized the agreements between the parties until 31 December 1981 are still valid; whereas this is the case both as regards competition with other Community undertakings and with coal from third countries and as regards the improvement of distribution by means of joint sales; whereas in 1980 the share of the collieries concerned of the common market's coal production amounted to only 8 % and Saarlor sold 22;3 % of the output of the Saar collieries and 5;0 % of the output of the Lorraine field; whereas the percentages are comparable to those in previous years;

Whereas the agreement consequently continues to satisfy the conditions for authorization under Article 65 (2) of the Treaty,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

The period of validity of Decision No 44-59 is extended until 31 December 1986.

Article 2
