COMMISSION  DECISION
of 5 July 1983
establishing that the apparatus described as 'E for M - Simultrace Recorder, model VR-12, with plug-ins' may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties
(83/345/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 23 December 1982, 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 apparatus described as 'E for M - Simultrace Recorder, model VR-12, with plug-ins', ordered on 29 June 1979 and intended to be used for recording the variables of the heart's circulating system, 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 22 June 1983, within the framework of the Committee on Duty-Free Arrangements, to examine the matter;
Whereas this examination showed that the apparatus in question is a recorder; whereas it does not have the requisite objective characteristics 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 'E for M - Simultrace Recorder, model VR-12, with plug-ins', which is the subject of an application by the Federal Republic of Germany of 23 December 1982, may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

(2) Article 2(1) of Regulation (EC) No 969/2006 fixes a quantity of 121 037 tonnes for subperiod 1 for the period from 1 January to 30 June 2007.
(3) Based on the notification made under Article 4(3) of Regulation (EC) No 969/2006, the applications lodged from 1 to 8 January 2007 at 13.00 (Brussels time) in accordance with Article 4(1) of that Regulation, relate to quantities in excess of those available.

Whereas Article 1 (2) and Article 7 (4) and (5) of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 837/68 of 28 June 1968 on detailed rules for the application of levies on sugar (3), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1491/70 (4), specified the margin within which variations in the components used to calculate the levy on white and raw sugar and syrups would not entail an alteration in that levy;
Whereas the experience gained in the application of these provisions has shown that the margins for varying the import levies on white sugar, raw sugar and on syrups are too narrow and result in changes being made more frequently than is necessary ; whereas less frequent changes are unlikely adversely to affect the efficient management of the Community's sugar market ; whereas, therefore, in order to simplify the administration, these margins should be widened;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Sugar,
Regulation (EEC) No 837/68 is hereby amended as follows:    1. In Article 1 (2), "0 710" shall read "0 720".
