THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN

COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 97/69 of 16 January 1969 on measures to be taken for the uniform application of the nomenclature of the Common Customs Tariff (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 2055/84 (2), and in particular Article 3 thereof,

Whereas, in order to ensure that the Common Customs Tariff Nomenclature is applied uniformly, measures must be taken concerning the classification of pitted prunes, ready to eat, having a moisture content not exceeding 35 % to which sorbic acid has been added;

Whereas heading No 08.12 of the Common Customs Tariff annexed to Council Regulation (EEC) No 950/68 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 3400/84 (4), relates in particular to dried fruits other than those falling within heading No 08.01 to 08.05 inclusive;

Whereas the products in question have the characteristics of goods falling within heading No 08.12 and must therefore be classified in this heading; whereas, within the latter, subheading 08.12 C is the most appropriate;

Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee on Common Customs Tariff Nomenclature,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1
