Whereas, by letter dated 7 October 1981, the Italian Republic 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 'Perkin Elmer - Gas Chromatography System, model Sigma 1, with Lab Data System, model Sigma 10', to be used for the analysis of oils, fats, sterol fractions and pesticides, for toxicological analysis, identification of drug metabolites, recognition of organic synthesis intermediates, extraction products and essential oils, 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;
