*****COMMISSION  DECISION  of 13 March 1984  establishing that the product described as 'Columbia - 5',5',5'Trifluorleucin' may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties  (84/165/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 last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 608/82 (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 September 1983, the Federal Republic of Germany 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 product described as 'Columbia - 5',5',5'Trifluorleucin', ordered on 19 December 1979 and intended to be used as selective agent for breeding resistant cell-lines of suspension cultures of Valeriana wallichii DC, should be considered as 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 26 January 1984 within the framework of the Committee on Duty-Free Arrangements to examine the matter;  Whereas this examination showed that the product in question constitutes a means of nourriture of abovementioned cultures on which research is being held;  Whereas it does not have the requisite objective characteristics making it specifically suited to scientific research; whereas, moreover, it does not constitute a direct means of research; whereas its use in the case in question could not alone confer upon it the character of a scientific product; whereas it therefore cannot be regarded as a scientific product; whereas the duty-free admission of the product in question is therefore not justified,  HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:  Article 1  The product described as 'Columbia - 5',5',5'Trifluorleucin', which is the subject of an application by the Federal Republic of Germany of 2 September 1983, may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.  Article 2  This Decision is addressed to the Member States.  Done at Brussels, 13 March 1984.  For the Commission  Karl-Heinz NARJES  Member of the Commission  (1) OJ No L 184, 15. 7. 1975, p. 1.
