(United Kingdom) 
(Articles 92 to 94 of the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community) 
(90/C 54/03) 
Commission communication pursuant to Article 93 (2) of 
the EEC Treaty to other Member States and interested 
parties regarding aid which the United Kingdom has 
decided to grant to shipbuilding. In the following letter, 
the Commission informed the Government of the United 
Kingdom of its decision to close the procedure initiated 
on 7 October 1987 ('). 
By letter dated 9 February 1989 the UK Government 
specified, following a review and restructuring of UK 
R&D aid arrangements, that its shipbuilding industry 
will be eligible to apply for support for collaborative 
research projects from the Department of Trade and 
Industry's Research and Technology initiative under the 
Science and Technology Act 1965. 
(') OJ No C 10, 15. 1. 1988. An Article 93 (2) procedure was initiated against the 
non-specific support for innovation scheme, pending 
completion of its examination by the Commission in the 
context of the framework for State aid to R&D. The UK 
Government was informed of this decision by 
Commission letter of 15 October 1987. However, the 
UK Government took due note that the criteria 
embodied in the support for innovation scheme was too 
broad to be analysed against the R&D guidelines and 
notified instead a number of individual aid schemes 
including support for collaborative research projects. 
These schemes have already been approved by the 
Commission. As regards shipbuilding, the presently 
notified aid scheme appears to be in conformity with 
Article 8 of the Sixth Directive. Under these circum­
stances the Commission has decided to close the 
procedure against the support for innovation scheme.

(Luxembourg) 
(Articles 92 to 94 of the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community) 
(90/C 156/04) 
Commission communication pursuant to Article 93 (2) of 
the EEC Treaty to the other Member States and 
interested parties concerning aids granted by the Fonds 
de Solidarite Viticole and financed by parafiscal charges — 
termination of the procedure provided for in Article 93 
(2) of the EEC Treaty. 
By letter of 14 July 1989, the Commission informed the 
Luxembourg Government that it had decided to initiate 
the procedure provided for in Article 93 (2) of the EEC 
Treaty in respect of certain measures applied by the 
Fonds de Solidarite Viticole. 
The Luxembourg Government forwarded its obser­
vations to the Commission by letters of 18 September 
1989 and 26 February 1990. 
The procedure was initiated in respect of aid to combat 
late frosts and harmful organisms. Under that procedure, 
the Commission asked questions concerning that aid and 
aid to promote the consumption of wine. The Luxembourg authorities stated that the former 
measure has not been applied hitherto and that the latter 
is applied in compliance with the Community 
framework. 
The Commission has accordingly decided to terminate 
that procedure and notes: 
— the intention of those authorities to notify pursuant 
to Article 93 (3) of the Treaty any aid measure 
contemplated by the Fonds de Solidarite Viticole 
under the second indent of Article 3 of the Law of 
23 April 1965, as amended by the Law of 23 
December 1978 (measures to combat late harvests 
and harmful organisms), 
— the Luxembourg Government's declaration to the 
effect that the measures contemplated by the Fonds 
de Solidarite Viticole to promote the consumption of 
wine as provided for in the third indent of Article 3 
of that Law are applied in compliance with the 
Community framework for national aids of this 
nature (Official Journal of the European Communities 
No C 302 of 12 November 1987, page 6).

Council Resolution of 17 December 1990 on the development of a European high-speed rail network



Official Journal C 033 , 08/02/1991 P. 0001 - 0003



COUNCIL RESOLUTION of 17 December 1990 on the development of a European high-speed rail network (91/C 33/01) THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, 1. welcomes, in view of the importance attached by the European Council of 14 and 15 December 1990 to the development of large infrastructure networks, the communication on the European high-speed rail network which the Commission has submitted to it following consultation of the Working Party set up as a result of the Resolution adopted by the Council at its meeting on 4 and 5 December 1989; 2.welcomes the discussions held to draw up an outline plan specifying the priority measures for establishing the European network.

COUNCIL RESOLUTION of 26 March 1992 on the extension of the system for observing the markets for the carriage of goods by rail, road and inland waterway (92/C 86/04)

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Council Declaration adopted on 12 June 1978 on the progressive implementation of a system for observing the markets for the carriage of goods by rail, road and inland waterway between the Member States,

Having regard to the Council resolutions of 18 June 1986 and 8 December 1988 on the extension of the system for observing the markets for the carriage of goods by rail, road and inland waterway between the Member States (1),

Having regard to the proposal for a Council Decision for a permanent European system for observing the inland goods transport markets submitted on 20 January 1991 by the Commission (2), and the report from the Commission to the Council on the implementation of the temporary system,

Whereas the adoption of a permanent market observation system is desirable;

Whereas the permanent system should match the needs of a common transport policy, taking particular account of the completion of the internal market;

Whereas a permanent market observation system should, firstly, be reliable and provide access in a reasonable space of time to necessary information on both national and international transport markets in the Community; whereas, in addition, it should not entail disproportionate costs and therefore the objectives and workings of the system should be carefully defined, stipulating in particular the tasks incumbent upon the Member States;

Whereas the question also arises as to whether this system should apply only to road and rail transport or should also cover other forms of transport;

Considering that the establishment of such a system requires additional detailed consideration in respect of its characteristics and manner of implementation;

Considering that, until a permanent system is implemented, the continuity of the current provisional system should be maintained,

HEREBY ADOPTS THIS RESOLUTION:

1. The system for observing the markets for the carriage of goods by rail, road and inland waterway, as laid down in the Council resolution of 8 December 1988, will continue in force until such time as a definitive system is implemented.

2. The Member States and the Commission will ensure close cooperation between their relative departments in the collection and analysis of data forming part of the market observation system.

3. The Council invites the Commission to continue, in cooperation with experts from Member States, its investigations in this area, including an estimate of the costs and to submit to it if appropriate, an amendment to its proposal aimed a setting up a permanent system. In this context, the Commission may also consider whether or not data concerning other fields of transport not included in the present system should be introduced in the future permanent market observation system.

COUNCIL RESOLUTION of 5 April 1993 on future action on the labelling of products in the interest of the consumer

(93/C 110/01)

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

1.Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,

2.Whereas it is necessary for the effective working of the internal market, established since 1 January 1993, that all parties involved, including individual consumers, have confidence in the operation of this market and benefit fully from it;

3.Whereas, in its resolution of 9 November 1989 on future priorities for relaunching consumer protection policy (1), the Council, in line with its resolutions of 14 April 1975 and 19 May 1981, set as one of its priorities seeking a Community framework for providing information on products by means of labelling;

4.Whereas the Council's resolution of 13 July 1992 on future priorities for the development of consumer protection policy (2) underlines the need to secure consumer confidence in the operation of the single market and to ensure the consumer's freedom to choose from a diverse range of goods and services by improved information and transparency; whereas this resolution calls for further measures in the areas of transparency and information inter alia with regard to further harmonization of labelling;

5.Whereas various recent studies have shown that consumers set a high value on information by labelling and a large majority finds it necessary that the same kind of information on specific products be provided in all Member States;

6.Whereas legislation already adopted by the Council has established detailed labelling requirements for certain products; whereas for other products requirements are insufficient or even lacking;

7.Whereas disparity of existing national legislation on labelling risks creating barriers to trade within the Community and thereby impeding the operation of the internal market,

REAFFIRMS that labelling is one important means of achieving better information and transparency for the consumer and of ensuring that the internal market functions harmoniously.

INVITES the Commission, in consultation with Member States and with the interested parties (consumer, industry and commerce organizations), to examine the need and merits of a Community-wide solution and, on that basis, to study the possibility of establishing a Community framework for labelling requirements.

NOTES that the Commission intends to take account of the result of its recent consumer enquiries, of existing Community legislation and the current discussion on Commission proposals, the objective of harmonization, the principles of subsidiarity and proportionality and self-regulatory systems between consumers, industry and commerce organizations in the Member States.

INVITES the Commission to address the issues listed in the Annex and to present its conclusions to the Council with the utmost alacrity and to present appropriate proposals at the latest before June 1994. In the meantime, the Commission should keep the Council regularly informed of the progress of its study.
