COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1147/98 of 2 June 1998 amending for the 11th time Regulation (EC) No 913/97 adopting exceptional support measures for the pigmeat market in Spain
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2759/75 of 29 October 1975 on the common organisation of the market in pigmeat (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 3290/94 (2), and in particular Article 20 thereof,
Whereas, because of the outbreak of classical swine fever in certain production regions in Spain, the Commission adopted Regulation (EC) No 913/97 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 988/98 (4), to introduce exceptional support measures for the pigmeat market in that Member State;
Whereas, because the veterinary and trade restrictions continue to apply and have been extended to new zones, particularly in the provinces of Zaragoza and Seville, the number of piglets which may be delivered to the competent authorities should be increased so that the exceptional measures can continue from 14 May 1998 and the list of eligible areas laid down in Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 913/97 should be adjusted in line with the current veterinary and health situation;
Whereas Commission Decision 97/285/EC of 30 April 1997 concerning certain protection measures relating to classical swine fever in Spain (5), as last amended by Decision 98/271/EC (6), has been replaced by Decision 98/339/EC (7); whereas account must be taken of this change;
Whereas the restrictions on the free movement of animals have been operative for several weeks in one of the areas located in the province of Zaragoza and the area in the province of Seville, resulting in a substantial increase in the weight of the animals and, consequently, an intolerable situation as regards their welfare; whereas application of the support measures from 14 May 1998 in these new areas is therefore justified;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Pigmeat,
Regulation (EC) No 913/97 is amended as follows:
1. In Article 2(2) 'Decision 97/285/EC` is replaced by 'Decision 98/339/EC`.
2. Annex I is replaced by Annex I hereto.
3. Annex II is replaced by Annex II hereto.
This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.It shall apply from 14 May 1998.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Commission Decision
of 10 June 1981
establishing that the apparatus described as "Genrad 1621 precision capacitance measurement system" may be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties
(81/461/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 2 December 1980, the United Kingdom 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 "Genrad 1621 precision capacitance measurement system", to be used for research into the properties of glasses containing differing amounts of various elements and in particular for measuring the resistance and capacitance of samples as a function of frequency, 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 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 capacitance meter; Whereas its objective technical characteristics, such as the large range of capacitance and inductive measures, 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 "Genrad 1621 precision capacitance measurement system", which is the subject of an application by the United Kingdom of 2 December 1980, may be imported free of Common Customs Tariff duties.
This Decision is addressed to the Member States.
