COMMISSION DECISION

of 15 November 1982

establishing that the apparatus described as 'Spex-Czerny-Turner Spectrograph/Spectrometer, model 1802' may be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties

(82/804/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 17 April 1982, Italy 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 'Spex-Czerny-Turner Spectrograph/Spectrometer, model 1802', ordered on 13 February 1979 and to be used in molecular spectroscopy and in particular for high-speed recording on radiograph of medium resolution emission and absorption spectra, 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 20 September 1982 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 spectrograph;

Whereas its objective technical characteristics such as the resolution power 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, on the basis of information received from Member States, apparatus of equivalent scientific value capable of use for the same purpose is not currently manufactured in the Community; whereas, therefore, duty-free admission of this apparatus is justified,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

The apparatus described as 'Spex-Czerny-Turner Spectrograph/Spectrometer, model 1802', which is the subject of an application by Italy of 17 April 1982, may be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.

Article 2

This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

Whereas under Article 1 (2) of Decision 78/640/EEC this participation in respect of Ireland is fixed at a maximum of 46 million ECU for the period 1 January 1977 to 31 December 1982;

Whereas the programme submitted by Ireland for surveillance of the maritime waters falling within its jurisdiction, which includes the expenditure estimate for medium and short-term measures, was verified by the Commission, which decided that expenditure totalling 61 127 890 ECU was eligible (2), subject to a review of the final choice of reconnaissance aircraft before the Community financial contribution was paid;

Whereas the application submitted by the Irish authorities covers expenditure incurred during the period 1 January to 31 December 1981 which amounted to £ Irl 83 963;47;

Whereas an amount of £ Irl 2 572;25 is included in this expenditure in respect of activities of a kind which may not be included among measures for which a financial contribution from the Community is foreseen; whereas this amount cannot be considered eligible for reimbursement in accordance with the said Article 1 (2);

Whereas the total net expenditure to be reimbursed to Ireland for the period 1 January to 31 December 1981 therefore amounts to £ Irl 81 391;

Whereas this expenditure should be reimbursed in accordance with the said Article 1 (2);

Whereas the EAGGF Committee has been consulted on the financial aspects, and in particular on the financial means available,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

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 18 June 1982, 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 'Hewlett Packard - Digital Signal Analyzer, model 5420A', ordered on 30 October 1978 and to be used for the noise reduction in drop forging during abrasive cutting and machining and in particular for the analysis of noise and vibration in the various processes, 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 22 October 1982 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 signal 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,
