Explanatory Notes to the Combined Nomenclature of the European Union

2012/C 187/05

Pursuant to Article 9(1)(a), second indent, of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 of 23 July 1987 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff (1), the Explanatory Notes to the Combined Nomenclature of the European Union (2) are amended as follows:

On page 390, the following text is inserted:

‘Note 4 to Chapter 95 Combinations to be classified under heading 9503 by virtue of this note consist of one or more articles of heading 9503 combined with one or more items of other headings put up together for retail sale and the combinations have the essential character of toys. Such combinations derive the essential character of toys not only from the packaging but also from the importance, value and use of their components. The classification of such combinations in the relevant subheading is determined by the items of heading 9503 contained in the combination; the other components are not taken into account. For example: — a plastic doll filled with sweets is to be classified under subheading 9503 00 21, — a figurine representing a clown, a circus tent, toy animals and a key ring is to be classified under subheading 9503 00 70 as a set of toys comprising a figurine, tent and toy animals.’

Absorption by Piraeus Bank of the sound part of the Agricultural Bank of Greece pursuant to Articles 63B, 63D and 68 of Act 3601/2007

2012/C 267/02

On 27 July 2012, pursuant to Articles 63B, 63D and 68 of Act 3601/2007, the Bank of Greece (by Decision of the Committee for Bank Resolution Measures No 4/1/27.7.2012) decided that certain assets and liabilities of the credit institution the Agricultural Bank of Greece SA (‘ATEbank’) would be absorbed by Piraeus Bank SA. According to these provisions, the Bank of Greece is empowered to oblige a credit institution to transfer assets to another credit institution or another person, where this appears necessary to ensure public confidence and, in particular, to protect investors, stability and the smooth operation of the financial system and to prevent systemic risks or destabilisation. In this context, the abovementioned Decision of the Bank of Greece means that all customer deposits at the ATEbank, its investments in other credit institutions, the investments of other credit institutions at ATEbank and its loans and securities portfolio etc. are to be absorbed.

Following a corresponding communication from the Bank of Greece to the monitoring authorities in Germany, this branch of ATEbank will continue to provide services to its customers as a branch of Piraeus Bank SA.

For further information, please refer to this branch (Baseler Strasse 46, 60329 Frankfurt am Main, Germany).

Any appeal against the abovementioned Decision of the Bank of Greece must be submitted to the Greek Supreme Administrative Court (Συμβούλιο της Επικρατείας) normally within 60 days of its promulgation (i.e. within 60 days of 27 July 2012). However, because of the postponement of deadlines as a result of judicial holidays in Greece in August, the deadline does not expire until 26 October 2012. The Supreme Administrative Court can be found at Panepistimiou 47-49, 10564 Athens, Greece.
