COMMISSION  DECISION
of 7 November 1983
establishing that the apparatus described as 'EPC - Graphic Recorder, model 1600' may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties
(83/566/EEC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN
COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1798/75 of 10 July 1975 on the importation free of Common Customs Tariff duties of educational, scientific and cultural materials (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 608/82 (2),
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 13 May 1983, Belgium 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 'EPC - Graphic Recorder, model 1600', ordered on 3 February 1982 and intended to be used in seismic stratigraphic investigations in the southern North Sea and in particular for the investigation of the geological structure of the Belgian continental shelf and of the effects of dredging work on the marine environment, 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 17 October 1983 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 recorder; 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 nonscientific 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 'EPC - Graphic Recorder, model 1600', which is the subject of an application by Belgium of 13 May 1983, may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
