Whereas, pursuant to the said general rules, the goods described in column 1 of the table annexed to this Regulation must be classified under the appropriate CN codes indicated in column 2, by virtue of the reasons set out in column 3;

Whereas the Nomenclature Committee has not delivered an opinion within the time limit set by its chairman,
