Article 1 
By way of derogation from Article 2(1) of Directive 77/388/EEC, the Italian Republic is hereby authorised to conclude an agreement with Switzerland in view of not imposing VAT on tolls for the Gran San Bernardo tunnel. The authorisation is granted under the condition that the Italian Republic estimates every year the amount of losses in VAT at the stage of final consumption and adds an equivalent compensation to the VAT base which is used for establishing its contributions to the Community's own resources.
Article 2 
This Decision is addressed to the Italian Republic.
