*****COMMISSION  DECISION  of 21 December 1981  establishing that the apparatus described as 'TSI-laser anemometer system, consisting of: base for argon ion laser; mirror system; risers, model 9177; rotating mount, model 9178, model 9179; beam splitter, model 9115-1; ring mount, model 9176; beam spacer, model 9113-9, model 9113-22; receiving assembly, model 9140; photomultiplier system, model 9160; counter, model 1990A; interface for mini-computer, model 1998D' may be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties  (82/67/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 2 June 1981, the United Kingdom 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 TSI-laser anemometer system, consisting of: base for argon ion laser; mirror system; risers, model 9177; rotating mount, model 9178, model 9179; beam splitter, model 9115-1; ring mount, model 9176; beam spacer, model 9113-9, model 9113-22; receiving assembly, model 9140; photomultiplier system, model 9160; counter, model 1990A; interface for mini-computer, model 1998D', to be used for measuring the effects of free-stream turbulence on heat transfer to gas turbine blades, 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 18 November 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 laser; whereas its objective technical characteristics such as the frequencies of the measuring bands and the use to which it is put make it specially suited to scientific research; 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  The apparatus described as 'TSI-laser anemometer system, consisting of: base for argon ion laser; mirror system; risers, model 9177; rotating mount, model 9178, model 9179; beam splitter, model 9115-1; ring mount, model 9176; beam spacer, model 9113-9, model 9113-22; receiving assembly, model 9140; photomultiplier system, model 9160; counter, model 1990A; interface for mini-computer, model 1998D',  which is the subject of an application by the United Kingdom of 2 June 1981, may be imported free of Common Customs Tariff Duties.  Article 2  This Decision is addressed to the Member States.  Done at Brussels, 21 December 1981.  For the Commission  Karl-Heinz NARJES  Member of the Commission  (1) OJ No L 184, 15. 7. 1975, p. 1.
