Whereas Decision 97/256/EC (3) grants the EIB a budget guarantee for lending from its own resources in specified regions outside the Community; whereas the budget guarantee should be extended to cover the Bank loans agreed in the Protocol on financial cooperation with the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia;
Whereas the Council is calling on the Bank to finance projects in that country according to the arrangements set out in the Protocol on financial cooperation by offering it the guarantee provided for in this Decision;
Whereas Decision 97/256/EC should therefore be amended;

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 852/2011
of 24 August 2011
amending Regulation (EU) No 397/2010 as regards the quantitative limit for the exports of out-of-quota isoglucose until the end of the 2010/11 marketing year
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION
,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007 of 22 October 2007 establishing a common organisation of agricultural markets and on specific provisions for certain agricultural products (Single CMO Regulation) (1), and in particular Article 61, first paragraph, point (d), in conjunction with Article 4, thereof,
Whereas:
(1) According to Article 61, first subparagraph, point (d) of Regulation (EC) No 1234/2007, isoglucose produced in excess of quota during a marketing year may be exported only within the quantitative limit to be fixed.
(2) Detailed implementing rules for out-of-quota exports, in particular those concerning the issue of export licences, are laid down by Commission Regulation (EC) No 951/2006 of 30 June 2006 laying down detailed rules for the implementation of Council Regulation (EC) No 318/2006 as regards trade with third countries in the sugar sector (2). Nevertheless, the quantitative limit should be fixed per marketing year, according to market opportunities.
(3) Commission Regulation (EU) No 397/2010 of 7 May 2010 fixing the quantitative limit for exports of out-of-quota sugar and isoglucose until the end of the 2010/11 marketing year (3) fixed the quantitative limit for the exports of out-of-quota isoglucose at 50 000 tonnes. Large part of this quantity has already been used. As of 12 July 2011 only 16 520 tonnes remain available, i.e. 67 % of the available quantity has been already used. Given the possible market outlets for out-of-quota isoglucose, it is appropriate to increase the export quantitative limit by 15 000 tonnes.
(4) Regulation (EU) No 397/2010 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(5) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for the Common Organisation of Agricultural Markets,
Article 2(1) to Regulation (EU) No 397/2010 is replaced by the following:
‘1.   For the 2010/11 marketing year, running from 1 October 2010 to 30 September 2011, the quantitative limit referred to in Article 61, first paragraph, point (d) of Regulation (EC) 1234/2007 shall be 65 000 tonnes, in dry matter, for exports without refund of out-of-quota isoglucose falling within CN codes 1702 40 10, 1702 60 10 and 1702 90 30.’
This Regulation shall enter into force on the seventh day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 2664/98 of 10 December 1998 amending Regulation (EC) No 1916/95 laying down detailed rules of application for the importation under preferential agreements on tariff quotas of raw cane sugar for refining
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1785/81 of 30 June 1981 on the common organisation of the markets in the sugar sector (1), as last amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No 1148/98 (2), and in particular Article 37(6) and the second subparagraph of Article 39 thereof,
Whereas Commission Regulation (EC) No 1033/98 (3) amends Article 45 of Regulation (EEC) No 3719/88 (4), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1044/98 (5), so that quantities imported in excess of the quantity shown on the import licence within the tolerance provided for in Article 8(4) of Regulation (EEC) No 3719/88 do not qualify under the preferential arrangements;
Whereas Article 37 of Regulation (EEC) No 1785/81 establishes the maximum presumed supply needs of the refining industry expressed as white sugar per marketing year for the 1995/96 to 2000/01 marketing years; whereas when partial deliveries of raw sugar are imported the white sugar equivalent cannot actually be determined until after the raw sugar has been analysed or refined; whereas application of Article 45 of Regulation (EEC) No 3719/88 would have a disproportionately severe financial impact on operators; whereas there therefore appears to be no justification for not allowing quantities imported within the tolerance to qualify for the preferential arrangements; whereas in any event the quantities qualifying for preferential conditions in any one delivery year may not exceed the above maximum needs allocated to each refining Member State; whereas a derogation should therefore be granted from Article 45 of Regulation (EEC) No 3719/88;
Whereas imports carried out in the same marketing year should be subject to the same rules for reasons of equality of treatment; whereas the derogation should therefore be applied with effect from the date of entry into force of Regulation (EC) No 1033/98;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Sugar,
The following paragraph 1a is hereby added to Article 1 of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1916/95 (6):
'1a. Notwithstanding Article 45 of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3719/88 (*), quantities imported benefiting from the positive tolerance provided for in Article 8(4) of that Regulation shall be deemed to have been delivered under the quota referred to in Article 1(2) provided they are covered by the certificate of origin referred to in Article 5.
(*) OJ L 331, 2.12.1988, p. 1.`
This Regulation shall enter into force on the seventh day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
It shall apply to licences and certificates requested with effect from the entry into force of Regulation (EC) No 1033/98.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

COMMISSION  DECISION

establishing that the apparatus described as 'Tracor - Multichannel Analyzer, model TN-7200' may be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties
(84/62/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 18 July 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 'Tracor - Multichannel Analyzer, model TN-7200', ordered on 15 January 1982 and intended to be used for the study of 4-photon interaction processes with picosecond light pulses in condensed matter, 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 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 an analyzer; whereas its objective technical characteristics, such as the resolution power in the field of the optic 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 'Tracor - Multichannel Analyzer, model TN-7200', which is the subject of an application by the Federal Republic of Germany of 18 July 1983, may be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
