COMMISSION REGULATION (EEC) No 3672/90 of 18 December 1990 on determining the origin of ball, roller or needle roller bearings

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff (1), as last amended by Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3274/90 (2), and in particular Article 15 thereof,

Whereas the classification of the goods described in Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1836/78 of 27 July 1978 on determining the origin of ball, roller or needle roller bearings (3), uses the Common Customs Tariff Nomenclature, which is itself based on the Customs Cooperation Council Nomenclature ; whereas this has been replaced by the Harmonized Commodity Description and Coding System which is applied in the Community by means of the combined nomenclature ; whereas, for reasons of clarity, it is preferable to replace Regulation (EEC) No 1836/78 entirely;

Whereas the abovementioned adaptations to the combined nomenclature constitute simple technical adaptations not entailing any amendment concerning the scope of the rules which had previously been laid down in Regulation (EEC) No 1836/78,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

The products described in column 2 of the annexed table originate in the country in which the operations referred to in column 3 were carried out.

Article 2

Regulation (EEC) No 1836/78 is hereby repealed.

Article 3

This Regulation shall enter into force three days after its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Done at Brussels, 18 December 1990.
