            COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 332/2009
of 23 April 2009
         
amending Annex I to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Customs Tariff


THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,


Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 of 23 July 1987 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff (1), and in particular Article 9(1) (a) thereof,

Whereas:







(1)


For the classification of some products falling within heading 1905  of the Combined Nomenclature annexed to Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87, a distinction is to be made between, on the one hand, products of subheading 1905 90 20  and, on the other hand, preparations classified in subheading 1905 90 90 .












(2)


According to the Harmonised System Explanatory Notes to heading 1905 , item (B), this heading covers a number of products made of flour or starch pastes, generally baked in the form of discs or sheets.












(3)


No definition is given for ‘similar products’ included in subheading 1905 90 20 .












(4)


Problems have risen with respect to the classification of so called ‘sheets of dough’ as no clear criteria have been defined to distinguish between products of subheadings 1905 90 20  and 1905 90 90 .












(5)


It is therefore appropriate to add an additional note to Chapter 19 laying down that subheading 1905 90 20  only covers dry and brittle products.












(6)


Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 should therefore be amended accordingly.












(7)


The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Customs Code Committee,





HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:



Article 1
In Chapter 19 of the Combined Nomenclature annexed to Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 the following additional note is added:






‘3.


Subheading 1905 90 20  only covers dry and brittle products.’






Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the 20th day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.




This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
Done at Brussels, 23 April 2009.

Parties to the main proceedings


Applicants: Falco Privatstiftung, Thomas Rabitsch

Defendant: Gisela Weller-Lindhorst

Re:

Reference for a preliminary ruling — Oberster Gerichtshof — Interpretation of Article 5(1) of Council Regulation (EC) No 44/2001 of 22 December 2000 on jurisdiction and the recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters (OJ 2001 L 12, p. 1) — Meaning of ‘provision of services’ and of the ‘place in a Member State where the services should have been provided’ — Jurisdiction over a case relating to the payment of royalties in respect of a licence to exploit a musical work

Operative part of the judgment







1.


The second indent of Article 5(1)(b) of Council Regulation (EC) No 44/2001 of 22 December 2000 on jurisdiction and enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters, is to be interpreted to the effect that a contract under which the owner of an intellectual property right grants its contractual partner the right to use that right in return for remuneration is not a contract for the provision of services within the meaning of that provision.










2.


In order to determine, under Article 5(1)(a) of Regulation No 44/2001, the court having jurisdiction over an application for remuneration owed pursuant to a contract under which the owner of an intellectual property right grants to its contractual partner the right to use that right, reference must continue to be made to the principles which result from the case-law of the Court of Justice on Article 5(1) of the Convention of 27 September 1968 on jurisdiction and the enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters, as amended by the Convention of 26 May 1989 on the Accession of the Kingdom of Spain and the Portuguese Republic.

Tribunale di Bergamo

Parties to the main proceedings


Applicant: Luigi Scarpelli

Defendant: NEOS Banca SpA

Re:

Reference for a preliminary ruling — Tribunale di Bergamo — Interpretation of Article 11(2) of Council Directive 87/102/EEC of 22 December 1986 for the approximation of the laws, regulations and administrative provisions of the Member States concerning consumer credit (OJ 1987 L 42, p. 48) — Consumer credit — Right of the consumer to pursue remedies against the grantor of credit for breach of the contract of sale relating to the goods financed by the credit

Operative part of the judgment

Article 11(2) of Council Directive 87/102/EEC of 22 December 1986 for the approximation of the laws, regulations and administrative provisions of the Member States concerning consumer credit is to be interpreted as meaning that, in a situation such as that in the main proceedings, an agreement between a supplier and a grantor of credit whereunder credit is made available exclusively by that grantor of credit to customers of that supplier is not a necessary condition for the right of those customers to pursue remedies against the grantor of credit — where the supplier is in breach of contract — in order to obtain the termination of the credit agreement and the subsequent reimbursement of the sums already paid to the grantor of credit.
