the laws of the Member States relating to turnover taxes 
— Common system of value added tax: uniform basis of 
assessment ('), as last amended by Directive 84/386/ 
EEC (2), and in particular Article 27 thereof, 
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, 
Whereas, under the terms of Article 27 (1) of Directive 
77/388/EEC, the Council, acting unanimously on a 
proposal from the Commission, may authorize any 
Member State to introduce special measures for dero­
gation from the provisions of that Directive, in order to 
simplify the procedure for charging the tax or to prevent 
certain types of tax evasion or avoidance; 
Whereas the United Kingdom has requested authoriz­
ation to apply a special measure designed to determine 
on a flat-rate basis the proportion of value-added tax 
relating to expenditure on fuel used for private purposes 
in company cars; whereas that measure derogates from 
the provisions of Article 5 (6) and Article 17 (6) of 
Directive 77/388/EEC; 
Whereas it is appropriate to accede to that request 
subject to certain conditions relating to the adjustment, 
renewal and period of application of the measure in 
question, HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION: 
Article 1 
The United Kingdom is hereby authorized to fix on a 
flat-rate basis the proportion of VAT relating to 
expenditure on fuel used for private purposes in 
company cars. 
Article 2 
For a transitional period, the proportion of VAT 
referred to in Article 1 may be expressed in fixed 
amounts determined according to engine capacity or 
type of vehicle. These fixed amounts shall be adjusted 
annually in line with changes in the average cost of fuel. 
Article 3 
Where Article 2 is applied, the United Kingdom shall 
communicate to the Commission annually the following 
information, broken down by vehicle category: 
1. the average cost of fuel per kilometre, 
2. the average distance covered per vehicle each year on 
private journeys, and 
3. an estimate of the number of vehicles affected by this 
Decision. 
The system which has been set up will be reviewed on 
the basis of this information and taking account of the 
harmonization of expenditure not giving rise to a 
deduction of VAT envisaged in Article 17 (6) of 
Directive 77/388/EEC.

foreseeable additional needs, and the second held as a 
Community reserve to cover possible additional needs, Article 1 
The volume of the Community tariff quota opened by
