COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 752/96 of 22 April 1996 amending Annexes II and III to Regulation (EC) No 519/94 on common rules for imports from certain third countries
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 113 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas Council Regulation (EC) No 519/94 of 7 March 1994 on common rules for imports from certain third countries (1) introduced in respect of the People's Republic of China certain quantitative quotas listed in Annex II to the Regulation and surveillance measures with regard to certain products listed in Annex III thereto;
Whereas, when the size of the quotas was established, the Council's objective was to strike a balance between an appropriate level of protection for the Community industries concerned and maintenance of an acceptable level of trade with China, taking into account the various interests in play;
Whereas, in the light of the experience acquired in implementing the quotas, the situation of the Community producers concerned indicates that an adjustment of some quotas would be appropriate and would be neither inconsistent with the above objective nor liable to disrupt the Community market; whereas, in the case of shoes, the particularly sensitive nature of the industry indicates that an increase smaller than that for other products is in order, limited to the quotas on leather shoes;
Whereas analysis of the main economic indicators, in particular the levels of Community production and recent trends in consumption, suggests that the quotas for gloves falling within HS/CN codes 4203 29 91 and 4203 29 99, the quota on combined car radios falling within HS/CN code 8527 21 and that for non-combined car radios falling within HS/CN code 8527 29 could be abolished;
Whereas the products in respect of which quotas are abolished by this Regulation should, however, be subject to prior Community surveillance, except non-combined car radios;
Whereas the three quotas for toys falling within HS/CN headings 9503 41, 9503 49 and 9503 90 should be fused into one, so introducing greater flexibility in the implementation of the quotas to the benefit of the economic operators concerned;
Whereas it is no longer necessary to maintain surveillance measures on a range of products of which the imports in 1994 were negligible or lower than in 1993; whereas, with a view to simplifying administration, they should be removed from the list of products subject to Community surveillance;
Whereas the quantitative quotas and surveillance measures introduced under Regulation (EC) No 519/94 should therefore be amended,
Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 519/94 shall be replaced by the Annex which appears in Annex I to this Regulation.
Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 519/94 shall be replaced by the Annex which appears in Annex II to this Regulation.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.
It shall apply from 1 January 1996.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

COMMISSION DECISION of 6 July 1981 establishing that the apparatus described as "Finnigan Incos 2000 data system" may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties (81/579/EEC)
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES

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 19 December 1980, Belgium 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 "Finnigan Incos 2000 data system", to be used in the framework of a pharmacological study of the role and formation of prostaglandins and other metabolites of arachidonic acid in parts of the body and their involvement in pathological processes, 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 28 April 1981 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 computer;
Whereas it does not have the requisite objective characteristics making it specially suited to scientific research ; whereas, moreover, apparatus of the same kind are principally used for 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, whereas the duty-free admission of the apparatus in question is therefore not justified,
The apparatus described as "Finnigan Incos 2000 data system" which is the subject of an application by Belgium of 19 December 1980 may not be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
