(2014/409/EU)
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION
,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Articles 46 and 48 in conjunction with Article 218(9) thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 2894/94 of 28 November 1994 concerning arrangements for implementing the Agreement on the European Economic Area (1), and in particular Article 1(3) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Whereas:
(1) The Agreement on the European Economic Area (2) (‘the EEA Agreement’) entered into force on 1 January 1994.
(2) Pursuant to Article 98 of the EEA Agreement, the EEA Joint Committee may decide to amend, inter alia, Protocol 31 thereto.
(3) Protocol 31 to the EEA Agreement contains provisions and arrangements concerning cooperation in specific fields outside the four freedoms.
(4) It is appropriate to extend the cooperation of the Contracting Parties to the EEA Agreement to include cooperation concerning the free movement of workers, the coordination of social security systems and measures for migrants, including migrants from third countries.
(5) Protocol 31 to the EEA Agreement should therefore be amended accordingly in order to allow for this extended cooperation to take place from 1 January 2014.
(6) The position of the Union within the EEA Joint Committee should be based on the attached draft Decision,

COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 326/2010
of 21 April 2010
amending Regulation (EEC) No 3846/87 establishing an agricultural product nomenclature for export refunds
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION
,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 of 22 October 2007 establishing a common organisation of agricultural markets and on specific provisions for certain agricultural products (Single CMO Regulation) (1), and in particular Article 170 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3846/87 (2) establishes an agricultural product nomenclature for export refunds on the basis of the Combined Nomenclature.
(2) The refund nomenclature provides for cheeses to be eligible for an export refund if they meet minimum requirements as regards milk dry matter and milk fat. A particular type of cheese produced in some new Member States meets those necessary requirements but does not benefit from a refund since it is not covered by the present classification system of the export refund nomenclature. Given the importance of the particular cheese for the dairy industry, it is appropriate to add the product codes enabling that cheese to be classified under the export refund nomenclature.
(3) Commission Regulation (EC) No 1187/2009 of 27 November 2009 laying down special detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 as regards export licences and export refunds for milk and milk products (3) has repealed Regulation (EC) No 1282/2006 of 17 august 2006 laying down special detailed rules for the application of Council Regulation (EC) No 1255/1999 as regards export licences and export refunds for milk and milk products (4). The references made in footnotes 4 and 14 of Sector 9 of Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 3846/87 should therefore be updated.
(4) Regulation (EEC) No 3846/87 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(5) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for the Common Organisation of Agricultural Markets,
Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 3846/87 is amended in accordance with the Annex to this Regulation.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas:
(1) The interim period provided by Decision 95/408/EC ends on 31 December 2000.

(3) The proposed revision of certain veterinary legislation as set out in the White Paper on Food Safety will include a modified regime for the approval of third country establishments from which Member States are authorised to import certain products.
(4) In order to prevent any disruptions in traditional trade patterns, the interim period during which a simplified system may be applied to the drawing up of lists of third country establishments exporting certain products of animal origin, fishery products or live bivalve molluscs should be extended,
In Article 9 of Decision 95/408/EC the date "31 December 2000" shall be replaced by "31 December 2003".

COMMISSION  DECISION
of 6 August 1982
establishing that the apparatus described as 'Summagraphics - Digitalizer, model ID-17' may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN
COMMUNITIES

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 16 February 1982, 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 'Summagraphics - Digitalizer, model ID-17', ordered on 18 March 1980 and to be used for the study of the magnetic characteristics of solids at low temperatures, 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 8 June 1982 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 numeric converter; 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 'Summagraphics - Digitalizer, model ID-17', which is the subject of an application by the Federal Republic of Germany of 16 February 1982, may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
