amending Implementing Regulation (EU) No 79/2012 laying down detailed rules for implementing certain provisions of Council Regulation (EU) No 904/2010 concerning administrative cooperation and combating fraud in the field of value added tax
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EU) No 904/2010 of 7 October 2010 on administrative cooperation and combating fraud in the field of value added tax(1), and in particular Article 47l(c) thereof,

(2) Chapter 6 of Title XII of Council Directive 2006/112/EC(3) provides for special schemes for taxable persons supplying certain services.
