FIRST COUNCIL DECISION

of 9 October 1990

on the extension of the legal protection of topographies of semiconductor products to persons from certain countries and territories

(90/510/EEC)

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Directive 87/54/EEC of 16 December 1986 on the legal protection of topographies of semiconductor products (1), and in particular Article 3 (7) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas the right to legal protection of topographies of semiconductor products in the Community applies to persons qualifying for protection under Article 3 (1) to (5) of Directive 87/54/EEC;

Whereas the right to protection can be extended, by a Counicl Decision, to persons who do not benefit from protection under the said provisions;

Whereas the extension of protection should, as far as possible, be decided for the Community as a whole;

Whereas such protection has in fact previously been extended in respect of certain countries and territories on an interim basis only, in accordance with Decisions 87/532/EEC (2) and 88/311/EEC (3), which both expire on 7 November 1990;

Whereas it now seems appropriate to extend protection on a permanent basis to those countries or territories which have an appropriate legislation protecting topographies of semiconductor products under their national law and which make this protection available on a permanent basis to those persons from the Member States of the Community who benefit from the right to protection under Directive 87/54/EEC,

Article 1

Member States shall extend the right to protection under Directive 87/54/EEC as follows:

(a) natural persons who are nationals of a country or territory listed in the Annex to this Decision or who have their habitual residence in the territory of one of those countries or territories shall be treated as if they were nationals of a Member State;

(b) companies or other legal persons of a country or territory listed in the Annex which have a real and effective industrial or commercial establishment in such a country or territory shall be treated as if they had a real and effective industrial or commercial establishment on the territory of a Member State.

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3730/87 of 10 December 1987 laying down the general rules for the supply of food from intervention stocks to the most deprived persons in the Community (1),

Having regard to Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3744/87 of 14 December 1987 laying down the detailed rules for the supply of food from intervention stocks to the most deprived persons in the Community (2), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2736/89 (3), and in particular Article 2 (3) thereof,

Whereas on 31 July 1990, Belgium requested Commission authorization to initiate already in 1990 the action on its territory to be financed by resources chargeable to the 1991 budget and indicated the quantities of produce that it wished to distribute, whereas it is desirable to initiate the scheme now in Belgium by making an allocation to that country, whereas this allocation shall not exceed 50 % of the resources allocated by Commission decision to Belgium in respect of the plan for 1990;

Whereas in order to facilitate the implementation of this scheme it is necessary to specify the rate of exchange to be employed in converting the ecu into the national currency and to do so at a rate which reflects economic reality,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

1. The allocation for Belgium of the appropriations referred to in Article 2 (3) of Regulation (EEC) No 3744/87 to be charged to the 1991 budget shall be ECU 1 109 500.

COMMISSION DECISION

of 29 October 1990

concerning Regulation (EEC) No 685/69 and relating to the fixing of private storage aid for butter or cream

(90/549/EEC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Commission Regulation (EEC) No 685/69 of 14 April 1969 on detailed rules of application for intervention on the market in butter and cream (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3131/90 (2), and in particular Article 29 (1) thereof,

Whereas Article 29 of Regulation (EEC) No 685/69 lays down that, where there is a change in the buying-in price of butter, expressed in national currency, by the intervention agencies, private storage aid is increased or decreased accordingly; whereas, however, the Commission may decide, in accordance with the procedure provided for in Article 30 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 804/68 of 27 June 1968 on the common organization of the market in milk and milk products (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3117/90 (4), that the aid concerned will not be modified if the market situation justifies this; whereas the current situation on the market for butter and cream, characterized by surpluses, dictates that the devaluation of the green rates should not be reflected in the amount of aid;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products,

HAS DECIDED AS FOLLOWS:

Article 1

The modification of the buying-in price for butter, expressed in national currency, resulting from the change in the green rate applicable from 11 October 1990 shall not be taken into account for the calculation of private storage aid under Article 29 of Regulation (EEC) No 685/69.
