THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN
COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Articles 28 and 113 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas, for the purpose of classifying in the Common Customs Tariff ('CCT') annexed to Regulation (EEC) No 950/68 (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1507/82 (2), certain garments which cover the lower part of the body from the waist downwards while surrounding each leg individually, the criterion of the length of these garments should be adopted; whereas, on the basis of this criterion, these garments have been classified in subheading 61.01 B V e) 'Trousers' when they cover the knees and in subheading 61.01 B V d) 'Breeches and shorts' when they do not;
Whereas other garments of this type referred to in English as 'breeches' or 'knickerbockers', which cover the knees, are to be classified with trousers in subheading 61.01 B V e) on the basis of all the language versions of the CCT except the English;
Whereas, on the other hand, on the basis of the English versions of the CCT, these garments are to be classified in subheading 61.01 B V d) 'Breeches and shorts';
Whereas, in addition, the English version has a more restrictive meaning than the other versions;
Whereas the English version of subheadings 61.01 B V d) and 58.02 A II a) should be aligned on the other language versions,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
