Whereas, by letter dated 16 June 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 "Ortec - Gamma-X Coaxial HPGe Detector, model 2012-25200-S", ordered on 18 September 1980 and to be used for the analysis of samples of building materials and in particular for high-efficiency determination of radioactive isotopes with low gamma energies in such samples, 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 15 November 1982, within the framework of the Committee on Duty-Free Arrangements to examine the matter;

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 "Series Si(Li) X", manufactured by Laben, via Bassini 15, I-20133 Milan,
