COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1080/2008
of 4 November 2008
amending Regulation (EC) No 1100/2006 laying down, for the marketing years 2006/07, 2007/08 and 2008/09, detailed rules for the opening and administration of tariff quotas for raw cane-sugar for refining, originating in least developed countries, as well as detailed rules applying to the importation of products of tariff heading 1701 originating in least developed countries
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 980/2005 of 27 June 2005 applying a scheme of generalised tariff preferences (1), and in particular Article 12(6) thereof,
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) (2), and in particular Article 134 in combination with Article 4 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) Article 5(7)(d) of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1100/2006 of 17 July 2006 laying down, for the marketing years 2006/07, 2007/08 and 2008/09, detailed rules for the opening and administration of tariff quotas for raw cane-sugar for refining, originating in least developed countries, as well as detailed rules applying to the importation of products of tariff heading 1701 originating in least developed countries (3), limits the applications for import licenses of sugar from Least Developed Countries (LDC) to ‘approved operators’.
(2) Council Regulation (EC) No 732/2008 of 22 July 2008 applying a scheme of generalised tariff preferences for the period from 1 January 2009 to 31 December 2011 and amending Regulations (EC) No 552/97, (EC) No 1933/2006 and Commission Regulations (EC) No 1100/2006 and (EC) No 964/2007 (4) (GSP Regulation) provides for a more inclusive definition: ‘the applicant’. However, the amendment it introduces will become applicable only from 1 January 2009, at the start of application of the new period of the GSP Regulation, and not from the beginning of the next marketing year for sugar, which starts on 1 October 2008. In order to avoid discrimination between operators willing to supply the market, the new definition shall coincide with the starting of the marketing year of sugar. Regulation (EC) No 1100/2006 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(3) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Generalised Preferences Committee.
(4) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for the Common Organisation of Agricultural Markets,
In Article 5(7)(d) of Regulation (EC) No 1100/2006, the words ‘the approved operator’s pledge’ shall be replaced by the words ‘the applicant’s pledge’.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of 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 DECISION  of 25 January 1980  refusing to accept the scientific character of the apparatus described as "Magnavox-Geoceiver Satellite Surveyor, model MX 1502"  (80/210/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 amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1027/79 (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 14 June 1979, the Government of Italy requested the Commission to invoke the procedure at present laid down in Article 7 of Regulation (EEC) No 2784/79 in order to determine whether or not the apparatus described as "Magnavox-Geoceiver Satellite Surveyor, model MX 1502", to be used in the study of the structure of the field of terrestrial gravity, should be considered as 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 4 December 1979 within the Committee on Duty-Free Arrangements to examine this particular case;
Whereas this examination showed that the apparatus in question is a portable receiver of signals transmitted by a satellite ; whereas it does not have the requisite objective characteristics making it specifically suited to scientific research ; whereas apparatus of the same kind are principally used for the realization of non-scientific 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,
The apparatus described as "Magnavox-Geoceiver Satellite Surveyor, model MX 1502", is not considered to be a scientific apparatus.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
