COMMISSION DECISION of 18 February 1981 establishing that the apparatus described as "ICSP-microcomputer training system, course 525 A" may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties (81/138/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 amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1027/79 (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 26 August 1980, the Danish Government 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 "ICSP-microcomputer training system, course 525 A", to be used for training and for the processing of scientific data in connection with the acquisition of meteorological parameters from automatic weather stations, 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 8 January 1981 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 micro-processor;

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 "ICSP-microcomputer training system, course 525 A", which is the subject of an application by the Danish Government of 26 August 1980, may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.

Article 2

This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 355/77 of 15 February 1977 on common measures to improve the conditions under which agricultural products are processed and marketed (1), and in particular Article 5 thereof,

Whereas on 17 October 1980 the Government of the Federal Republic of Germany forwarded the programme for the fruit and vegetable processing sector in the Land Baden-Württemberg and on 3 December 1980 provided additional details;

Whereas this programme relates to the modernization and rationalization of certain processing facilities and storage facilities in the fruit and vegetable processing sector in order to improve the competitiveness of the sector, to increase the value of fruit and vegetable production and to guarantee outlets to growers as well as to improve their income ; whereas it is therefore a programme within the meaning of Article 2 of Regulation (EEC) No 355/77;

Whereas the programme contains the details required under Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 355/77, showing that the objectives laid down in Article 1 of that Regulation can be achieved in respect of the sector concerned ; whereas the schedule for implementation of the programme does not exceed the time limit laid down in Article 3 (1) (g) of this Regulation;

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:

Article 1

The programme for the fruit and vegetable processing sector in the Land Baden-Württemberg submitted by the Government of the Federal Republic of Germany pursuant to Regulation (EEC) No 355/77 on 17 October 1980 and supplemented on 3 December 1980 is hereby approved.

Commission Decision

establishing that the apparatus described as "Perkin Elmer — atomic absorption spectrophotometer, model 5000" may be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties

(81/318/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 amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1027/79 [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 25 October 1980, the Italian Government 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 "Perkin Elmer — atomic absorption spectrophotometer, model 5000", to be used for research in the determination of heavy metals in the water, 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 5 March 1981 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 spectrophotometer; whereas its objec tive technical characteristics, such as the very high precision of the spectrum and the rapidity of the determination, and the use to which it is put make it specially suited to scientific recearch ; 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
