Having regard to Council Directive 64/432/EEC of 26 June 1964 on animal health problems affecting intra-Community trade in bovine animals and swine (1), as last amended by Directive 82/893/EEC (2), and in particular Article 4c (1) (c) thereof,

Having regard to Council Directive 72/461/EEC of 12 December 1972 on health problems affecting intra-Community trade in fresh meat (3), as last amended by Directive 82/893/EEC, and in particular Article 13a (2) thereof,

Whereas Council Decision 82/838/EEC of 3 December 1982 (4) recognizes certain parts of the territory of the Federal Republic of Germany as being either officially swine-fever-free or swine-fever-free;

Whereas outbreaks of classical swine fever have been recorded in some of the parts of the territory of the Federal Republic of Germany referred to in the Annexes to Decision 82/838/EEC;

COMMISSION DECISION

of 7 April 1983

establishing that the apparatus described as 'Hewlett Packard - Fourier Analyzer, model 5451C' may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties

(83/169/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 29 September 1982, the Federal Republic of Germany 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 'Hewlett Packard - Fourier Analyzer, model 5451C', ordered on 2 December 1980 and intended to be used for the production of integral components by the use of fast rotating endmilling cutters and in particular for the measurement of machine behaviour, 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 1 February 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 analyzer;

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 'Hewlett Packard - Fourier Analyzer, model 5451C', which is the subject of an application by the Federal Republic of Germany of 29 September 1982, may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.

Article 2

This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN

Whereas the Government of the Federal Republic of Germany on 14 May 1982 notified the programme for the fruit juice sector in the Land of Bavaria and on 7 December 1982 supplied additional information;

Whereas the said programme concerns the construction and modernization of extensive facilities for processing fruit (apples, sour cherries, currants) into juice, with the aim of stabilizing the fruit market in Bavaria 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 the question under what conditions the common action initiated by Regulation (EEC) No 355/77 will be continued beyond the date laid down in Article 16 (1) of the said Regulation remains open; whereas it is therefore appropriate to limit approval of the programme to applications referred to in Article 24 (4) of Regulation (EEC) No 355/77;

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:
