authorising the Federal Republic of Germany to continue to apply a measure derogating from Article 168 of Directive 2006/112/EC on the common system of value added tax
(2009/791/EC)
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 2006/112/EC (1), and in particular Article 395(1) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas:
(1) By letter registered with the Secretariat-General of the Commission on 19 December 2008, the Federal Republic of Germany (hereinafter Germany) requested authorisation to continue to apply a measure derogating from the provisions of Directive 2006/112/EC governing the right of deduction and previously granted by Decision 2004/817/EC (2) under the then applicable Sixth Council Directive 77/388/EEC on the harmonisation of the laws of the Member States relating to turnover taxes — Common system of value added tax: uniform basis of assessment (3).
(2) In accordance with Article 395(2) of Directive 2006/112/EC, the Commission informed the other Member States of the request made by Germany in a letter dated 3 June 2009. By a letter dated 9 June 2009, the Commission notified Germany that it had all the information that it considered necessary to consider the request.
(3) The derogating measure is intended to exclude VAT borne on goods and services completely from the right of deduction when the goods and services are used more than 90 % for the private purposes of the taxable person, or of his employees, or for non-business purposes in general.
(4) The measure derogates from Article 168 of Directive 2006/112/EC establishing the general principle of the right of deduction and is intended to simplify the procedure for charging VAT. The amount of tax due at the final consumption is only affected to a negligible extent.
(5) The legal and factual situation which justified the current application of the simplification measure in question has not changed and continues to exist. Germany should therefore be authorised to apply the simplification measure during a further period, but limited in time in order to allow an evaluation of the measure.
(6) The derogation will not adversely affect the Communities' own resources accruing from VAT,
By way of derogation from Article 168 of Directive 2006/112/EC, Germany is authorised to exclude VAT borne on goods and services from the right to deduct VAT when the goods and services in question are used more than 90 % for the private purposes of a taxable person or of his employees, or, more generally, for non-business purposes.
This Decision shall apply from 1 January 2010 until 31 December 2012.
This Decision is addressed to the Federal Republic of Germany.

COMMISSION DECISION  of 29 March 1979  on the refusal to accept the scientific character of an apparatus described as "Digital microcomputer system PDP-11V03-F-VT 55"  (79/393/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),
Having regard to Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3195/75 of 2 December 1975 laying down provisions for the implementation of Regulation (EEC) No 1798/75 (2), and in particular Articles 4 and 5 thereof,
Whereas, by letter dated 25 September 1978, the German Government requested the Commission to invoke the procedure laid down in Articles 4 and 5 of Regulation (EEC) No 3195/75 in order to determine whether or not the apparatus described as "Digital microcomputer system PDP-11V03-F-VT 55", used for on-line data processing with subsequent very rapid Fourier transform in the case of nuclear spin resonance investigations of ferromagnetic nickel monocrystals, should be considered as a scientific apparatus and, if 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 4 (5) of Regulation (EEC) No 3195/75, a group of experts composed of representatives of all the Member States met on 7 February 1979 within the Committee on Duty-Free Arrangements to examine this particular case;
Whereas this examination shows that the apparatus in question is an ordinary type of data-processing computer possessing no specific characteristics which make it specially suited to pure scientific research ; whereas it can perhaps be used in many fields of data processing ; whereas its use in this particular case cannot in itself give it the character of a scientific apparatus specially suited to pure scientific research ; whereas it therefore cannot be regarded as a scientific apparatus,
The apparatus described as "Digital microcomputer system PDP-11V03-F-VT 55" is not considered to be a scientific apparatus.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
