Whereas, by letter dated 27 October 1980, the Government of the Federal Republic of Germany 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 "ORTEC - economical energy dispersive spectrometer, model EEDS II, with Si (Li) X-ray detector, model 7880-S-449", to be used for research in pathological mutations in biological soft and hard tissues in order to arrive at conclusions as to the morphological progression of certain diseases, 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 5 March 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 an X-ray spectrometer with a detector ; whereas its objective technical characteristics, such as the energy-spectrum used for the optical microanalysis, 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, however, on the basis of information received from Member States, apparatus of scientific value equivalent to the said apparatus, capable of being used for the same purposes, are currently being manufactured in the Community ; whereas this applies, in particular, to the apparatus "EDX-290" and "system 860" manufactured by Link Systems Ltd, Halifax Road, UK-High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire HP12 3SE,
