COUNCIL REGULATION (EU) No 851/2014

of 23 July 2014

amending Regulation (EC) No 2866/98 as regards the conversion rate to the euro for Lithuania

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 140(3) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,

Having regard to the opinion of the European Central Bank,

Whereas:

(1) Council Regulation (EC) No 2866/98 of 31 December 1998 on the conversion rates between the euro and the currencies of the Member States adopting the euro (1) determines those conversion rates as from 1 January 1999.

(2) According to Article 4 of the 2003 Act of Accession, Lithuania is a Member State with a derogation as defined in Article 139(1) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union.

(3) Pursuant to Council Decision 2014/509/EU of 23 July 2014 on the adoption by Lithuania of the euro on 1 January 2015 (2), Lithuania fulfils the necessary conditions for the adoption of the euro and the derogation of Lithuania is abrogated with effect from 1 January 2015.

(4) The introduction of the euro in Lithuania requires the adoption of the conversion rate between the euro and the Lithuanian litas. This conversion rate should be set at 3,45280 litas per 1 euro, which corresponds to the current central rate of the litas in the exchange rate mechanism (ERM II).

(5) Regulation (EC) No 2866/98 should therefore be amended accordingly,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

In Article 1 of Regulation (EC) No 2866/98, the following line is inserted between the conversion rates applicable to the Latvian lats and the Luxembourg franc:

‘= 3,45280 Lithuanian litas’.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 January 2015.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States. Done at Brussels, 23 July 2014. For the Council The President S. GOZI

(1) OJ L 359, 31.12.1998, p. 1.

(2) OJ L 228, 31.7.2014, p. 29.
The article is therefore to be classified under CN code 8414 20 80 as other hand-operated air pumps.

Given its objective characteristics, the article is a hand-operated air pump, which is operated solely by human effort. Hand-operated pumps which are operated solely by human effort and which are designed to inflate specific air mattresses, fall under subheadings 8414 20 20 and 8414 20 80 (see also the Explanatory Notes to the Combined Nomenclature (CNEN), subheadings 8414 20 20 and 8414 20 80).

Classification is determined by general rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature (GIR) and the wording of CN codes 8414, 8414 20 and 8414 20 80.

By covering the circular hole on the upper side and exerting pressure, the air is transported via the extension and the valve to inflate a specific air mattress.

On the inside, there is a round cylinder of plastic foam with a cut-out in the middle.

The outer surface is made of two parts of textile material coated on the inner side and glued together.

On the upper side of the article is a circular hole allowing the inflow of air. The bottom side has a plastic valve towards the end of the extension.

An article consisting of a round part with a diameter of approximately 15 cm and a tube-like extension, approximately 20 cm long.

2. A kidney-shaped article (measuring approximately 35 cm × 17 cm), with a tube-like extension (approximately 25 cm long) which has three valves. On the bottom of the article there is a valve allowing the inflow of air. The upper side has two plastic valves towards the end of the extension, situated side by side. The outer surface is made of two parts of textile material coated on the inner side and glued together. On the inside, there is an oval-shaped piece of plastic foam with a cut-out. This cut-out is fitted with a valve on the bottom. By covering the valve on the bottom side and exerting pressure, the air is transported via the extension and the outermost valve to inflate a specific air mattress. The article is presented as a mini-pump. It can also be used as a pillow as by inserting one of the valves on the extension into the other, the article is prevented from deflating.
