Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas, for reasons connected with their geographic, economic and social situation, the French overseas departments should be excluded from the scope of the common system of value added tax as established by Council Directive 77/388/EEC (1);

Whereas implementation of this Directive does not involve any amendment of the laws of the Member States,
