THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2176/84 of 23 July 1984 on protection against dumped or subsidized imports from countries not members of the European Economic Community (1), and in particular Article 10 thereof,

After consultations within the Advisory Committee as provided for under the above Regulation,

Whereas:

By Regulation (EEC) No 2640/86 (2) the Commission imposed a provisional anti-dumping duty on imports of plain paper photocopiers originating in Japan;

The Commission considers that Kyocera's revised undertaking is acceptable;

The Council has decided in Article 1 of Regulation (EEC) No 535/87 (3) on the collection of the amounts secured by way of provisional duty,

HAS DECIDED AS FOLLOWS:

Article 1

The undertaking given by Kyocera Corporation in connection with the anti-dumping proceeding concerning imports of plain paper copiers falling within subheading 90.10 A of the Common Customs Tariff, corresponding to NIMEXE code ex 90.10-22 and originating in Japan is hereby accepted.

Whereas Council Directive 86/566/EEC (5) widened the obligations of Member States in respect of the liberalization of capital movements; whereas the Italian Republic has requested the Commission to extend the scope of the previously authorized protective measures to newly liberalized operations of the same type as those covered by Decision 85/16/EEC or presenting an equivalent threat to the balance of payments;
