    COMMISSION DECISION of 1 August 1980 finding that the apparatus described as "Oriel-Universal Arc Lamp Source, model 6114" is not a scientific apparatus (80/829/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 5 March 1980, the British Government 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 "Oriel-Universal Arc Lamp Source, model 6114", to be used to study the phototransfer technique for thermoluminescence dating of certain materials, 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 24 June 1980 within the framework of the Committee on Duty-Free Arrangements to examine the matter;

    Whereas this examination showed that the apparatus in question is an arc lamp source;

    Whereas it does not have the requisite objective characteristics making it specifically 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,

    HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

    Article 1

    The apparatus described as "Oriel-Universal Arc Lamp Source, model 6114" is not considered to be a scientific apparatus.

    Article 2

    This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

    Done at Brussels, 1 August 1980.

    For the Commission
