Commission Regulation (EC) No 10/2003
of 3 January 2003
fixing the export refunds on white sugar and raw sugar exported in its unaltered state
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 of 19 June 2001 on the common organisation of the markets in the sugar sector(1), amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No 680/2002(2), and in particular the second subparagraph of Article 27(5) thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 27 of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 provides that the difference between quotations or prices on the world market for the products listed in Article 1(1)(a) of that Regulation and prices for those products within the Community may be covered by an export refund.
(2) Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 provides that when refunds on white and raw sugar, undenatured and exported in its unaltered state, are being fixed account must be taken of the situation on the Community and world markets in sugar and in particular of the price and cost factors set out in Article 28 of that Regulation. The same Article provides that the economic aspect of the proposed exports should also be taken into account.
(3) The refund on raw sugar must be fixed in respect of the standard quality. The latter is defined in Annex I, point II, to Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001. Furthermore, this refund should be fixed in accordance with Article 28(4) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001. Candy sugar is defined in Commission Regulation (EC) No 2135/95 of 7 September 1995 laying down detailed rules of application for the grant of export refunds in the sugar sector(3). The refund thus calculated for sugar containing added flavouring or colouring matter must apply to their sucrose content and, accordingly, be fixed per 1 % of the said content.
(4) The world market situation or the specific requirements of certain markets may make it necessary to vary the refund for sugar according to destination.
(5) In special cases, the amount of the refund may be fixed by other legal instruments.
(6) The refund must be fixed every two weeks. It may be altered in the intervening period.
(7) It follows from applying the rules set out above to the present situation on the market in sugar and in particular to quotations or prices for sugar within the Community and on the world market that the refund should be as set out in the Annex hereto.
(8) Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001 does not make provision to continue the compensation system for storage costs from 1 July 2001. This should accordingly be taken into account when fixing the refunds granted when the export occurs after 30 September 2001.
(9) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Sugar,
The export refunds on the products listed in Article 1(1)(a) of Regulation (EC) No 1260/2001, undenatured and exported in the natural state, are hereby fixed to the amounts shown in the Annex hereto.
This Regulation shall enter into force on 4 January 2003.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

COMMISSION  DECISION
of 30 May 1984
establishing that the apparatus described as 'Spectra Physics - Cw Dye Laser, model 375' may be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties
(84/315/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 30 November 1983, 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 'Spectra Physics - Cw Dye Laser, model 375', ordered on 6 October 1982 and intended to be used for research on the photodissociation of ions in the gaseous phase, 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 11 April 1984 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 laser; whereas its objective technical characteristics such as the field and the emission width of the band 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 'Spectra Physics - Cw Dye Laser, model 375', which is the subject of an application by the Federal Republic of Germany of 30 November 1983, may be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

Whereas Article 5 (1) of Regulation (EEC) No 2727/75 provides that the threshold price for the principal cereals must be fixed in such a way that the selling price for imported products on the Duisburg market is the same as the target price; whereas this is achieved by deducting from the target price the most advantageous transport costs between Rotterdam and Duisburg, transhipment charges at Rotterdam and a trading margin; whereas the target prices have been fixed for the 1987/88 marketing year by Council Regulation (EEC) No 1901/87 (3);
Whereas the threshold prices for other cereals for which no target price is fixed must, in accordance with Article 5 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 2727/75, be so determined that the target price for the principal cereals in competition with these products may be reached on the Duisburg market;
Whereas, pursuant to Article 5 (5) of the abovementioned Regulation, the threshold prices for wheat flour, meslin flour and rye flour and for wheat groats and meal must be fixed according to the rules and for the standard qualities laid down in Articles 6, 7 and 9 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2734/75 (4); whereas the calculations made in accordance with those rules give the prices shown below;

COMMISSION DECISION
of 22 December 2009
authorising Ireland to use certain approximate estimates for the calculation of the VAT own resources base
(notified under document C(2009) 10418)
(Only the English text is authentic)
(2010/5/EU, Euratom)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION
,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Atomic Energy Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC, Euratom) No 1553/89 of 29 May 1989 on the definitive uniform arrangements for the collection of own resources accruing from value added tax (1), and in particular Article 6(3) thereof,
After consulting the Advisory Committee on Own Resources,
Whereas:
(1) Under Article 371 of Council Directive 2006/112/EC of 28 November 2006 on the common system of value added tax (2), certain Member States may continue to exempt certain transactions. These transactions must be taken into account for the determination of the VAT own resources base.
(2) By virtue of Article 371 of Directive 2006/112/EC, Ireland may continue to exempt transactions listed in point 10 of Part B of Annex X to that Directive.
(3) Ireland has requested authorisation from the Commission to use certain approximate estimates for the calculation of the VAT own resources base since it is unable to make the precise calculation of the VAT own resources base for transactions referred to in point 10 of Part B of Annex X to the VAT Directive. Such calculation is likely to involve an unjustified administrative burden in relation to the effect of these transactions on Ireland’s total VAT own resources base. Ireland is able to make a calculation using approximate estimates for this category of transactions. Ireland should therefore be authorised to calculate the VAT own resource base using approximate estimates in accordance with the second indent of Article 6(3) of Regulation (EEC, Euratom) No 1553/89.
(4) For reasons of transparency and legal certainty it is appropriate to limit the applicability of the authorisation in time,
For the purpose of calculating the VAT own resources base from 1 January 2009, Ireland is authorised to use approximate estimates in respect of the following category of transactions referred to in part B of Annex X to Directive 2006/112/EC:
— Transport of passengers (point 10).
This Decision shall apply from 1 January 2009 to 31 December 2013.
This Decision is addressed to Ireland.
