   Reference has been made to the Court of Justice of the European Communities by order of the Finanzgericht Hamburg of 1 December 2005, received at the Court Registry on 23 December 2005, for a preliminary ruling in the proceedings between Velvet & Steel Immobilien und Handels GmbH and Finanzamt Hamburg-Eimsbüttel on the following question:
   Is Article 13B(d)(2) of Sixth Council Directive 77/388/EEC (1) of 17 May 1977 on the harmonisation of the laws of the Member States relating to turnover taxes to be interpreted, with respect to the concept of ‘Übernahme von Verbindlichkeiten’ (assumption of obligations), as meaning that only pecuniary obligations are to be subsumed under that concept or does that provision also include the assumption of other obligations, for example, service obligations?
