Opinion of Mr Advocate General

Mr Advocate General Lenz delivered his Opinion on 28 June 1989. He proposed that the Court should rule as follows:

Article 7 of Commission Regulation No 1535/77 of 4 July 1977 determining the conditions under which certain goods are eligible upon importation for a favourable tariff arrangement by reason of their end-use must be interpreted as meaning that when goods are transferred the transferee must hold an authorization granted in accordance with Article 3 of that regulation, whether the transfer takes place between one Member State and another or within the same Member State.
