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 28 April 1982, 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 'Waters - High Pressure Liquid Chromatograph, consisting of: Solvent Delivery System, model 6000 A, Universal Injector, model U6K, Absorbance Detector, model 440, Solvent Programmer Accessory, model 660', ordered on 20 December 1977 and to be used for the analysis of antibody structures and in particular for the identification of phenylthiohydantoins, 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 20 September 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 liquid chromatograph; whereas its objective technical characteristics, such as the sensibility and the reproducebility of the analysis 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 'Waters - High Pressure Liquid Chromatograph, consisting of: Solvent Delivery System, model 6000 A, Universal Injector, model U6K, Absorbance Detector, model 440, Solvent Programmer Accessory, model 660', which is the subject of an application by the Federal Republic of Germany of 28 April 1982, may be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING DECISION
of 17 December 2012
amending Decision 2007/767/EC as regards the derogation from the rules of origin laid down in Council Decision 2001/822/EC as regards certain fishery products imported from the Falkland Islands
(notified under document C(2012) 9408)
(2012/806/EU)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION
,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Decision 2001/822/EC of 27 November 2001 on the association of the overseas countries and territories with the European Community (‘Overseas Association Decision’) (1), and in particular Article 37 of Annex III thereof,
Whereas:
(1) On 15 November 2007 the Commission adopted Decision 2007/767/EC (2) derogating from the definition of the concept of ‘originating products’ to take account of the special situation of the Falkland Islands with regard to various species of frozen fish of CN heading 0303, various species of frozen fish fillets of CN heading 0304 and frozen Loligo squid and Illex squid of CN heading 0307. That derogation expired on 30 November 2012.
(2) On 12 October 2012 the Falkland Islands requested a new derogation from the rules of origin set out in Annex III to Decision 2001/822/EC for the period from 1 December 2012 until the adoption of the new Overseas Association Decision. This request covers a total quantity of 8 750 tonnes of frozen fish of CN heading 0303, 1 683 tonnes of frozen fish fillets of CN heading 0304, 29 400 tonnes of frozen Loligo squid and 15 500 tonnes of frozen Illex squid of CN heading 0307.
(3) The Falkland Islands have based their request on the fact that domestic labour constraints and skill shortages limit the extent to which vessels can be crewed by Falkland Islanders. The fact that not all specific fishing expertise required is currently available from crew from the OCTs, the Community or ACP States stems in particular from the specific geographical situation of the Falkland Islands.
(4) The derogation from the rules of origin set out in Annex III to Decision 2001/822/EC should be granted for products falling within CN headings 0303 and 0304, Loligo squid of CN code 0307 49 35 and Illex squid of CN code 0307 99 11. This derogation is justified under Article 37(1) of that Annex, in particular as regards the development of an existing local industry.
(5) It is necessary to ensure continuity of importations from the Falkland Islands to the Union. Decision 2007/767/EC should therefore be prolonged with effect from 1 December 2012 until the entry into force of the new Overseas Association Decision which is foreseen to take place on 1 January 2014.
(6) Decision 2007/767/EC should therefore be amended accordingly.
(7) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Customs Code Committee,
Decision 2007/767/EC is amended as follows:
(1) Article 2, first paragraph is replaced by the following:
(2) Article 6 is replaced by the following:
(3) the Annex is replaced by the text set out in the Annex to this Decision.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
