45Finally, it must be stated that, by requiring that the value acquired as a result of assembly operations and, if applicable, the incorporation of parts originating in the country of assembly must represent at least 45% of the ex-works price of the products in order for their manufacture to confer on them the origin of the country where that assembly from material originating in several countries took place, the contested provisions of Annex 11 to Regulation No 2454/93 thereby set a sufficient percentage for those operations to be considered to involve an appreciable increase in the commercial value of the finished product (see, to that effect, Brother International, paragraph 22). Such a percentage does not therefore appear to be vitiated by any manifest error of assessment.
