Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 of 20 November 2009 establishing a Community control system for ensuring compliance with the rules of the common fisheries policy (1), and in particular Article 36(2) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Council Regulation (EU) No 57/2011 of 18 January 2011 fixing for 2011 the fishing opportunities for certain fish stocks and groups of fish stocks, applicable in EU waters and, for EU vessels, in certain non-EU waters (2), lays down quotas for 2011.
(2) According to the information received by the Commission, catches of the stock referred to in the Annex to this Regulation by vessels flying the flag of or registered in the Member State referred to therein have exhausted the quota allocated for 2011.

Prohibitions
Fishing activities for the stock referred to in the Annex to this Regulation by vessels flying the flag of or registered in the Member State referred to therein shall be prohibited from the date set out in that Annex. In particular it shall be prohibited to retain on board, relocate, tranship or land fish from that stock caught by those vessels after that date.

COMMISSION DECISION of 19 November 1981 establishing that the apparatus described as "Hewlett Packard - network analyzer, model 8410 B, with harmonic frequency converter, model 8411 A, polar display, model 8414 A and reflection/transmission test unit, model 8743 A" may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties (81/982/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 amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1027/79 (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 14 May 1981, 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 "Hewlett Packard - network analyzer, model 8410 B, with harmonic frequency converter, model 8411 A, polar display, model 8414 A and reflection/transmission test unit, model 8743 A", to be used for the development of a submm-heterodyne receiver for research on the submm-radiation of astronomical objects and in particular for measuring the intermediate frequency impedance of a quasi-optical mixer, 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 30 October 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 analyzer;
Whereas it does not have the requisite objective characterisitics making it specifically suited to scientific research ; whereas, moreover, apparatus of the same kind are principally used for non-scientific activities ; whereas its use in the case in question could not alone confer upon it the character of a scientific apparatus ; whereas it therefore cannot be regarded as a scientific apparatus ; whereas the duty-free admission of the apparatus in question is therefore not justified,
The apparatus described as "Hewlett Packard - network analyzer, model 8410 B, with harmonic frequency converter, model 8411 A, polar display, model 8414 A and reflection/transmission test unit, model 8743 A", which is the subject of an application by the Federal Republic of Germany of 14 May 1981, may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 of 17 May 1999 on the common organisation of the market in milk and milk products(1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1670/2000(2),
Having regard to Commission Regulation (EC) No 2771/1999 of 16 December 1999 laying down detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 as regards intervention on the market in butter and cream(3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1614/2001(4), and in particular Article 2 thereof,
Whereas:

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3918/92 of 28 December 1992 opening and providing for the administration of Community tariff quotas and ceilings for certain agricultural and industrial products and establishing a reduced variable component  for certain processed agricultural products originating in Hungary, Poland and the territory of the former Czech and Slovak Federal Republic (CSFR) (1), and in particular Article 6 thereof,
Whereas under Commission Regulations (EEC) No 1146/93 (2) and (EEC) No 1447/93 (3), the customs duties on products falling within CN code 3102 40 originating in Poland and the territory of the former Czech and Slovak Federal Republic respectively, to  which the tariff ceilings set out in Regulation (EEC) No 3918/92 apply, were re-established because imports of the products had reached their respective tariff ceilings;
Whereas under Council Regulation (EEC) No 2232/93 (4), the tariff ceilings introduced in 1993 by Regulation (EEC) No 3918/92 must be increased as from 1 July 1993 by an amount equivalent to 10 % of the initial volumes; whereas, therefore, the tariff  ceilings in respect of which the duties applicable to the countries under consideration were re-established on 30 June 1993 must be re-established as from 1 July 1993;
Whereas the statistics the Member States have sent the Commission show that, even when the above Regulations (EEC) No 1146/93 and (EEC) No 1447/93 were adopted, the ceiling volumes for products originating in Poland and the former territory of the Czech  and Slovak Federal Republic, as increased by Regulation (EEC) No 2232/93, had already been used up; whereas therefore it is desirable to maintain the re-established customs duties applicable to these products in spite of the reopening of the  corresponding tariff ceilings as from 1 July 1993,
The customs duties suspended in 1993 under Regulation (EEC) No 3918/92 and reintroduced by Regulation (EEC) No 1146/93 and (EEC) No 1447/93 as of 15 May 1993 and 16 June 1993 respectively shall continue to be levied from 1 July 1993 until 31  December 1993.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
