THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 of 23 July 1987 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff 1, and in particular Article 9(1)(a) thereof,
Whereas:
- (1) The classification of a video conferencing system consisting of various components including two installation diskettes in Commission Regulation (EC) No 2184/97 of 3 November 1997 concerning the classification of certain goods in the Combined Nomenclature 2 has led to classifications under CN code 8517 50 90 for the video conferencing system and 8524 91 10 for the two installation diskettes. Since Note 6 to Chapter 85 of the Combined Nomenclature was amended with effect from 1 January 2002 and in view of the fact that the HS Committee agreed in October 2004 on the interpretation of this Note, Regulation (EC) No 2184/97 is to be considered as incorrect.
- (2) Regulation (EC) No 2184/97 should therefore be amended accordingly.
- (3) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Customs Code Committee,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1

Article 2
This Regulation shall enter into force on the 20th day following its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
