COMMISSION  DECISION
of 2 April 1984
accepting an undertaking in connection with the anti-dumping proceeding concerning imports of standardized multi-phase electric motors having an output of more than 0,75 kW but not more than 75 kW, originating in the Soviet Union
(84/189/EEC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN
COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 3017/79 of 20 December 1979 on protection against dumped or subsidized imports from countries not members of the European Economic Community (1), as amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1580/82 (2), and in particular Articles 10 and 14 thereof,
After consulting the Advisory Committee established by the above Regulation,
Whereas:
A. Definitive duty
(1) Council Regulation (EEC) No 2075/82 (3) imposed a definitive anti-dumping duty on imports of standardized multi-phase electric motors having an output of more than 0,75 kW but not more than 75 kW, falling within subheading ex 85.01 B I b) of the Common Customs Tariff, corresponding to NIMEXE codes ex 85.01-33, 34 and 36, originating in the Soviet Union. The Regulation also contained an acceptance of undertakings to raise prices given by exporters from Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, the German Democratic Republic, Poland and Romania, and terminated the anti-dumping proceeding in respect of imports from those countries.
B. Review
(2) The Soviet exporter of the products in question, Energomachexport, Moscow, asked the Commission to review the definitive anti-dumping duty.
C. Dumping; injury; causation; Community interest
(3) The Soviet exporter did not contest the Council's findings with regard to dumping, injury, causation and Community interest, as set out in Regulation (EEC) No 2075/82.
D. Undertakings
(4) When requesting the review the Soviet exporter offered an undertaking to comply voluntarily with minimum export prices. As the price mentioned is equivalent to that established in the undertakings given by the other exporters originally involved in the anti-dumping proceeding and should eliminate the injury caused to the Community industry by the exports in question, the Commission considers it acceptable.
The undertaking offered by Energomachexport in connection with the anti-dumping proceeding concerning imports of standardized multi-phase electric motors having an output of more than 0,75 kW but not more than 75 kW, falling within subheading ex 85.01 B I b) of the Common Customs Tariff, corresponding to NIMEXE codes ex 85.01-33, 34 and 36, originating in the Soviet Union, is hereby accepted.

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Having regard to the consent of the European Parliament,
Whereas:
(1) On the basis of the Council Decision of 22 September 2009 authorising the Commission to open negotiations on behalf of the Community with a view to concluding a Fisheries Partnership Agreement with Solomon Islands, the Community has negotiated with Solomon Islands a Fisheries Partnership Agreement providing EU vessels with fishing opportunities in the waters over which Solomon Islands has sovereignty or jurisdiction in respect of fisheries.

COMMISSION DECISION of 17 February 1997 on the procedure for attesting the conformity of construction products pursuant to Article 20 (2) of Council Directive 89/106/EEC as regards metal injection anchors for use in masonry (Text with EEA relevance) (97/177/EC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 89/106/EEC of 21 December 1988 on the approximation of laws, regulations and administrative provisions of the Member States relating to construction products (1), as amended by Directive 93/68/EEC (2), and in particular Article 13 (4) thereof,
Whereas the Commission is required to select, as between the two procedures in accordance with Article 13 (3) of Directive 89/106/EEC for attesting the conformity of a product, the 'least onerous possible procedure consistent with safety`; whereas this means that it is necessary to decide whether, for a given product or family of products, the existence of a factory production control system under the responsibility of the manufacturer is a necessary and sufficient condition for an attestation of conformity, or whether, for reasons related to compliance with the criteria mentioned in Article 13 (4), the intervention of an approved certification body is required for that purpose;
Whereas Article 13 (4) requires that the procedure thus determined must be indicated in the mandates and in the technical specifications; whereas, therefore, it is desirable to define the concept of products or family of products as used in the mandates and in the technical specifications;
Whereas the two procedures provided for in Article 13 (3) are described in detail in Annex III to Directive 89/106/EEC; whereas it is necessary therefore to specify clearly the methods by which the two procedures must be implemented, by reference to Annex III, for each product or family of products, since Annex III gives preference to certain systems;
Whereas the procedure referred to in point (a) of Article 13 (3) corresponds to the systems set out in the first possibility, without continuous surveillance, and the second and third possibilities of point (ii) of Section 2 of Annex III, and the procedure referred to in point (b) of Article 13 (3) corresponds to the systems set out in point (i) of Section 2 of Annex III, and in the first possibility, with continuous surveillance, of point (ii) of Section 2 of Annex III;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Construction,
The products set out in Annex I shall have their conformity attested by a procedure whereby, in addition to a factory production control system operated by the manufacturer, an approved certification body is involved in assessment and surveillance of the production control or of the product itself.
The procedure for attesting conformity as set out in Annex II shall be indicated in mandates for guidelines for European technical approvals.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

repealing Decision 2002/627/EC establishing the European Regulators Group for Electronic Communications Networks and Services
(Text with EEA relevance)
(2010/299/EU)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION
,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Whereas:
(1) Following the establishment in 2002 of the regulatory framework for electronic communications networks and services in accordance with European Parliament and Council Directives 2002/21/EC of 7 March 2002 on a common regulatory framework for electronic communications networks and services (Framework Directive) (1), 2002/19/EC of 7 March 2002 on access to, and interconnection of, electronic communications networks and associated facilities (Access Directive) (2), 2002/20/EC of 7 March 2002 on the authorisation of electronic communications networks and services (Authorisation Directive) (3) and 2002/22/EC of 7 March 2002 on the universal services and users’ rights related to electronic communications networks and services (Universal Service Directive) (4), the Commission adopted Decision 2002/627/EC (5) establishing an advisory group of the independent national regulatory authorities on electronic communications networks and services, called the European Regulators Group for Electronic Communications Networks and Services (the ERG).
(2) The ERG has made a positive contribution towards consistent regulatory practice by facilitating cooperation between national regulatory authorities (NRAs) and between NRAs and the Commission and by providing an interface for advising and assisting the Commission in the electronic communications field.
(3) The 2002 regulatory framework for electronic communications has been amended by Directive 2009/140/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (6), and by Directive 2009/136/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (7) and has been supplemented by Regulation (EC) No 1211/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 November 2009 establishing the Body of European Regulators for Electronic Communications (BEREC) and the Office (8).
(4) Under Regulation (EC) No 1211/2009 the role previously performed by the ERG is strengthened and given greater recognition in the revised framework, through the establishment of BEREC itself and its enhanced participation in the development of regulatory policy as well as in the mechanisms provided for ensuring consistent application of rules across the Member States. In particular according to that Regulation, BEREC is to replace the ERG and act as an exclusive forum for cooperation among NRAs and between the NRAs and the Commission, in the exercise of the full range of their responsibilities under the EU regulatory framework.
(5) Decision 2002/627/EC should therefore be repealed,
Decision 2002/627/EC is hereby repealed as from 1 June 2010.

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 June 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 'Canberra Ge(Li) detector, model 7229, with cryostat, model 7500', to be used for gammaspectrometric investigations of geological material to identify substances which will serve for the purpose of scan correlation, 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 December 1981 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 detector; whereas its objective technical characteristics such as the very high resolution 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, 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 manufactured on request by Harshaw Chemie BV, Strijkviertel 67, 3454 ZG De Meern, the Netherlands and by Montedel-Laben, via Bassini 15, 20133 Milan, Italy,
The apparatus described as 'Canberra Ge(Li) detector, model 7229, with cryostat, model 7500', which is the subject of an application by the Federal Republic of Germany of 16 June 1981, may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.

,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Directive 70/156/EEC of 6 February 1970 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the type approval of motor vehicles and their trailers (1), as last amended by Commission Directive 93/81/EEC (2),
Whereas on 20 December 1995 the authorities of the Kingdom of the Netherlands lodged a request for approval, by the Commission, of an exemption pursuant to Article 8 (2) (c) of Directive 70/156/EEC; whereas this request contains the information required by the abovementioned Article 8; whereas this request concerns the fitting of two kinds of vehicle with a third stop lamp, as provided for in category ECE S3 by ECE (United Nations Economic Commission for Europe) Regulation No 7 and fitted in accordance with ECE Regulation No 48;
Whereas the reasons stated, whereby the fitting of the stop lamps and the stop lamps themselves do not meet the requirements of Council Directive 76/758/EEC of 27 July 1976 relating to end-outline marker lamps, front position (side) lamps, rear position (side) lamps and stop lamps for motor vehicles and their trailers (3), as last amended by Commission Directive 89/516/EEC (4), and of Council Directive 76/756/EEC of 27 July 1976 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the installation of lighting and light-signalling devices on motor vehicles and their trailers (5), as last amended by Commission Directive 91/663/EEC (6), are justified; whereas the descriptions of the tests, the results thereof and their compliance with ECE Regulations Nos 7 and 48 ensure a satisfactory level of safety;
Whereas the Directives concerned will be amended in order to authorize the production and fitting of such stop lamps; whereas, this being the case, it is therefore justified to authorize EEC type approval for the two kinds of vehicle fitted with the stop lamps covered by these requests;
Whereas the measure provided for by this Decision is in accordance with the opinion of the Committee for the adaptation to technical progress of the Directives for the removal of technical barriers to trade in the motor vehicles sector, as set up by Directive 70/156/EEC,

Whereas Decision 80/47/EEC required Member States to have prior authorization from the Commission before introducing intra-Community surveillance of the imports of certain products originating in third countries and put into free circulation in another Member State;
Whereas, by Commission Regulation (EEC) No 977/87 (2), the import into Italy of textile products falling within category 1, originating in Thailand, is subject to quantitative ceilings for 1987 to 1991;
Whereas, on 30 June 1987, a request was made, under Article 2 of Decision 80/47/EEC, by the Italian Government to the Commission of the European Communities for authorization to introduce intra-Community surveillance;

Whereas the Commission examined in particular whether the imports could be made subject to intra-Community surveillance measures under Article 2 of Decision 80/47/EEC, whether information was given as regards the economic difficulties alleged, whether during the reference years set out in Decision 80/47/EEC there had been deflection of trade, and whether intra-Community licence applications had been submitted;
Whereas this examination has shown that there is a risk that imports of the products mentioned below are worsening or prolonging the existing economic difficulties; whereas, therefore, Italy should be authorized to make these imports subject to intra-Community surveillance until 31 December 1988,
The Italian Republic is authorized to introduce, until 31 December 1988 and in accordance with Decision 80/47/EEC, intra-Community surveillance of the textile products of category 1 originating in Thailand.
