Whereas the achievement of the single market on 1 January 1993 makes it desirable to remove all barriers to trade, not only between the Member States of the Community as constituted on 31 December 1985 but also, as far as possible, between those Member  States and the new Member States;
Whereas, under the Act of Accession, alignment on the common price of olive oil prices of the new Member States is to be gradually achieved in a period up to the beginning of the 1995/96 marketing year; whereas, until that date, accession compensatory  amounts therefore are applicable to trade between those countries and the other Member States;
Whereas, however, while maintaining the production aid and consumption aid at the level laid down by the Act of Accession, early alignment may be envisaged, on 1 January 1993, of Spanish prices on the common price, in view of the rebalancing provided  for in Council Regulation (EEC) No 2047/92 of 30 June 1992 fixing the prices, aids and percentages of aid to be retained in the olive-oil sector for the 1992/93 marketing year (2),
The common intervention price for olive oil shall be applicable in Spain from 1 January 1993.
Transitional measures required to ensure a smooth change-over from the arrangements specified in Article 92 of the Act of Accession to those of this Regulation, in particular to prevent a deflection of normal trade flows between Spain and the  other Member States, shall be adopted in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 38 of Regulation (EEC) No 136/66/EEC (3).
This Regulation shall enter into force on 1 January 1993. This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN

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 September 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 'Scintag - diffractometer, model R3', to be used for the automatic recording and analysis of X-ray reflexes in single crystals in structural analysis of molecules, 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 22 March 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 diffractometer; whereas its objective technical characteristics, such as the precision of the measuring of the reflexion, and the use to which it is put make it specially suited to scientific research; whereas, moreover, apparatus of the same kind are principally used for scientific activities; whereas it must therefore be considered to be a scientific apparatus;
Whereas, on the basis of information received from Member States, apparatus of equivalent scientific value capable of use for the same purpose is not currently manufactured in the Community; whereas, therefore, duty-free admission of this apparatus is justified,
The apparatus described as 'Scintag - diffractometer, model R3', which is the subject of an application by the Federal Republic of Germany of 23 September 1981, may be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
