Whereas the European Investment Bank is able to grant loans out of its own resources to help  achieve this objective;

Whereas the Treaty does not provide, for the adoption of this Decision, powers other than those of  Article 235,
The Community shall provide an interest rate subsidy, chargeable to  the budget of the European Communities, of 3 percentage points per annum for a maximum period of  twelve years, on some loans granted by the European Investment Bank (EIB) out of its own resources  and in accordance with its usual criteria for the financing of investment in the regions devastated  by the cyclone that hit Madeira in October 1993.

The detailed arrangements for implementing this Decision shall be laid down in a  cooperation agreement between the Commission and the EIB. In particular, this agreement should set  out the detailed rules for the payment of the interest rate subsidies.

Both cover apparatus with a microprocessor-based device incorporating a modem for gaining access to the Internet, and having a function of interactive information exchange, capable of receiving television signals, so-called ‘set-top boxes which have a communication function’. According to the wording of the subheadings the apparatus include apparatus incorporating a device performing a recording or reproducing function, provided that they retain the essential character of a set-top box which has a communication function.
(2) In the interest of legal certainty it is necessary to clarify the scope of those new subheadings with regard to the terms ‘modem’ and ‘interactive information exchange’. A new Additional Note should therefore be inserted in Chapter 85 of the Combined Nomenclature to ensure a uniform interpretation of those subheadings throughout the territory of the Union.
(3) Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(4) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Customs Code Committee,
In Chapter 85 of the Combined Nomenclature set out in Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87, as amended by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 1006/2011 (3), the following Additional Note 3 is inserted:
‘3. Apparatus of these subheadings must enable a two-way communication process or a two-way flow of information for the purposes of providing an interactive information exchange.’
This Regulation shall enter into force on the 20th day following 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.
