Having regard to the requests made by the Member States,
Whereas, in principle, pursuant to Directive 77/93/EEC, potato material intended for planting, other than tubers, may not be introduced into any Member State and potato tubers intended for planting may only be introduced into the Member States where they belong to officially accepted varieties or to advance selections;
Whereas, in the Member States, there is a need to import potato material, including tubers, for work on varietal selection, or for gene conservation or official scientific research purposes;
Whereas the Commission has established that, on the basis of the information currently available, there is, under such circumstances, no risk of spreading harmful organisms provided that certain technical conditions are satisfied;
Whereas by Decision 80/862/EEC (3), as last amended by Decision 91/22/EEC (4), the Commission has already granted such a derogation to the Member States for a period which expires on 31 December 1995;
Whereas no information has been received in the meantime giving cause for the derogation to be restricted to the abovementioned period;

,
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 1 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 'Packard - Tri-Carb Spectrometer, model 3255-01', to be used as a counter of radio-isotopes in tissues of living organisms, 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 4 February 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 spectrometer;
Whereas its objective technical characteristics such as the measuring field of the spectrum 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, however, on the basis of information received from Member States, apparatus of scientific value equivalent to the said apparatus, capable of being used for the same purposes, are currently being manufactured in the Community; whereas this applies, in particular, to the apparatus 'Isocap 300', manufactured by G. D. Searle Nederland BV, Wiegerbruinlaan 75, NL-Uithoorn, to the apparatus 'PW 4540', manufactured by Philips Nederland BV, Boschdijk 525, NL-Eindhoven, to the apparatus 'SL 4000', manufactured by Roche-Bioélectronique-Kontron, 2, avenue du Manet, Montigny-le-Brétonneux, F-78194 Trappes Cedex, and to the apparatus manufactured by Nuclear Enterprises Ltd, Sighthill, UK-Edinburgh EH11 4EY,
The apparatus described as 'Packard - Tri-Carb Spectrometer, model 3255-01', which is subject of an application by the Italian Republic of 1 October 1981, may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION
,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 186 in conjunction with point (v) of Article 218(6)(a) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Having regard to the consent of the European Parliament,
Whereas:
(1) By its Decision 2005/781/EC (1), the Council approved the conclusion of the Agreement for scientific and technological cooperation between the European Community and the Federative Republic of Brazil (the ‘Agreement’).

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) No 357/2012
of 24 April 2012
amending Implementing Regulation (EU) No 29/2012 on marketing standards for olive oil
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 113(1)(a) and Article 121, first paragraph, point (a), in conjunction with Article 4 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) In Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 29/2012 of 13 January 2012 on marketing standards for olive oil (2), which is the codification of Commission Regulation (EC) No 1019/2002 (3), the references to the Community made in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1019/2002 in respect of designations of origin have been replaced by references to the Union. Article 12(2) of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 29/2012 provides for a transitional period to allow products which have been legally manufactured and labelled in the Union or legally imported into the Union and put into free circulation before 1 July 2012 to be marketed until all stocks are used up. Firstly, this transitional period is considered too short and, secondly, the use of the term ‘legally’ in that provision leads to confusion regarding the transition between Regulation (EC) No 1019/2002 and Implementing Regulation (EU) No 29/2012.
(2) In order to allow labels using the term ‘Community’ to be used for a longer period, it should therefore be provided that products which have been manufactured and labelled in the Union or imported into the Union and put into free circulation in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1019/2002 before 1 January 2013 may be marketed until all stocks are used up.
(3) Implementing Regulation (EU) No 29/2012 should therefore be amended accordingly.
(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,
Article 12(2) of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 29/2012 shall be replaced by the following:
‘2.   Products which have been manufactured and labelled in the Union or imported into the Union and put into free circulation in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1019/2002 before 1 January 2013 may be marketed until all stocks are used up.’
This Regulation shall enter into force on the seventh day following that 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.

Whereas Commission Regulation (EC) No 1904/94 (2), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 2462/94 (3), fixes the minimum import price applicable to dried grapes and the countervailing charges to be imposed where that price is not observed;
Whereas Article 2 (2) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2089/85 of 23 July 1985 laying down general rules relating to the system of minimum import prices for dried grapes (4) provides that the maximum countervailing charge is to be determined on the basis  of the most favourable prices applied on the world market for significant quantities by the most representative non-member countries; whereas the countervailing charges currently in force should be amended on the basis of the prices applied on the world  market;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation take account of the agrimonetary rules applicable from 1 February 1995 in accordance with Article 13 (2) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 3813/92 of 28 December 1992 on the unit of account and the  conversion rates to be applied for the purposes of the common agricultural policy (5), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 150/95 (6);

This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.
