Notice concerning the continuation of anti-dumping measures in force on imports of ball-bearings with a greatest external diameter exceeding 30 mm, originating in Japan (90/C 132/06)

In June 1985, by Regulation (EEC) No 1739/85 (1), the Council imposed a definitive anti-dumping duty concerning imports of the abovementioned product after the Commission, by Regulation (EEC) No 3669/84 (2), had repealed its earlier Decision to accept undertakings. In May 1989 (3) a notice of initiation of a review of the abovementioned duty was published under Article 14 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2423/88 (4) following a request lodged by the Federation of European Bearing Manufacturers' Associations (Febma) on behalf of Community manufacturers whose collective output constitutes almost all the Community production of the goods in question. The Commission now gives notice that, in accordance with Article 15 (4) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2423/88, the measures shall remain in force after the end of the relevant five-year period pending the outcome of the review.

next six months as provided in Article 15 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2423/88 of 11 July 
1988 (') on protection against dumped imports from countries not members of the European 
Economic Community. 
2. Procedure 
An interested party may lodge a written request for a review. This request shall contain 
sufficient evidence that the expiry of the measure would lead again to injury or threat of injury. 
Furthermore, interested parties may make their views known in writing and may apply to be 
heard orally by the Commission provided that they consider that they are likely to be affected 
by the result of the proceeding and that there are particular reasons why they should be heard. 
3. Time limit 
Requests for a review by an interested party and any requests for hearings should be sent in 
writing to reach the Commission of the European Communities, Directorate-General for 
External Relations (Division I-C-2), rue de la Loi 200, B-1049 Brussels (2) not later than 30

matically lapse in accordance with Article 15 of the aforementioned Regulation.

Commission communication pursuant to Article 93 (2) of 
the EEC Treaty to other Member States and interested 
parties concerning aid which the French Government 
decided to grant through the Agence pour la Quality de 
l'Air (AQA) for investments in desulphurization. 
In the following letter, the Commission informed the 
French Government of its decision to close the 
procedure opened on 28 June 1990: 
'By letter dated 10 July 1989, the Commission informed 
your Government of the decision it took on 28 June 
1989 to open the Article 93 (2) procedure against the aid 
granted by the Agence pour la Quality de l'Air (AQA) 
for investments in desulphurization. 
In a notice published on 22 November 1989 in the 
Official Journal of the European Communities (*), the 
other interested parties were given notice to submit their 
comments. By letter dated 17 August 1989, your Government 
informed the Commission that it was prepared to abolish 
the old scheme and notify a new scheme incorporating 
the comments made by the Commission in its Article 93 
(2) procedure opened against the former scheme. Your 
Government also stressed the innovatory nature of the 
aided investments which were limited to non-productive 
equipment and constituted a first industrial application. 
Note was also be taken of AQA's efforts to disseminate 
the aided technological experiments and thus allow the 
development and demonstration of new technologies, 
and their progress. 
In view of these considerations, and the approach the 
Commission has always taken to aid for firms applying 
new technologies for the first time and on an industrial 
scale which are aimed at bringing pollution levels to well 
below legal standards, the Commission has decided to 
close the procedure it opened on 28 June 1989 in respect 
of the desulphurization investment aid awarded through 
the Agence pour la Qualite de l'Air (AQA).'

COUNCIL RESOLUTION

of 19 June 1995

on relocation in air transport

(95/C 169/02)

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Whereas the Council has already emphasized the need for the air transport industry to reach the profitability and productivity levels necessary to be economically viable and competitive worldwide;

Whereas in its resolution of 24 October 1994 on the situation in European Civil Aviation (1) the Council considered that the risk of development of flags of convenience and use of non-Community resources ought to be examined;

Whereas the provisions of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2407/92 of 23 July 1992 on licensing of air carriers (2) relating to leasing must be applied in a uniform manner by all Member States;

Whereas the possible use of non-Community resources provides further justification for formulating a comprehensive set of common technical standards to maintain safety in civil aviation;

Whereas the Community, in developing its social policy, must take account of the specific characteristics of air transport, in particular the effects of relocation;

Whereas the use of non-Community resources affords a possibility for access by third countries to the internal market which needs to be looked at in the framework of relations with those countries,

NOTES that the Commission intends to carry out a study of developments in the social situation in relation to the liberalization of air transport;

CALLS UPON the Commission to submit to it as soon as possible the outcome of the study on the consequences of air transport liberalization, and requests that in so doing it takes into account the issue of the use of non-Community resources as referred to in the resolution of 24 October 1994; following the report of the Committee of Wise Men and a private consultants' report requested by the Commission in 1992, the study should analyse in particular:

- the extent of the phenomenon of relocation and its actual and potential consequences for employment and conditions of employment in the Community air transport sector;

- current practice by Community air undertakings regarding use of non-Community resources;

- national regulations and administrative procedures governing use of non-Community resources;

CALLS UPON the Commission to examine the application of the provisions of Regulation (EEC) No 2407/92 relating to the leasing of non-Community resources and, if necessary, to draw up guidelines enabling them to be applied uniformly, particularly as regards:

- the concepts of 'temporary needs`, 'exceptional circumstances` and 'equivalent safety standards`,

- the conditions under which a Community carrier may use aircraft for which, although they are registered in the Community, the State of registry's liability in respect of monitoring technical operation has been delegated to a third country.

RESOLUTION OF THE CONSULTATIVE COMMITTEE OF THE ECSC on the granting of adequate budget appropriations for social and labour market policy support measures (95/C 40/03)

(Text with EEA relevance)

(Unanimously adopted at the 318th Session of 16 December 1994, less one abstention)

THE CONSULTATIVE COMMITTEE OF THE EUROPEAN COAL AND STEEL COMMUNITY,

- believes that the budget appropriations for social support measures of ECU 240 million will not be sufficient,

- observes that, according to information from the Commission, applications have already been submitted by the Member States to the tune of ECU 185 million and that there is thus a reserve of only ECU 55 million for all the measures to be carried out in 1995, despite the fact that many further job losses are expected in that year,

- would point out that it is the aim of both the European Commission and the Member States to reduce unemployment and that labour market policy measures must be expanded accordingly,

- is of the opinion that the intended restriction would halt socially-acceptable restructuring in the iron and steel regions,

- calls on the Commission to provide for additional budget appropriations via the applications submitted for 1995 and to lay clear emphasis on the importance of qualifications, retraining measures and measures to increase regional mobility as well as on abolishing unemployment among young people in the affected areas.
ANNEX III.4

Circulation and confidentiality of joint reports on the situation in certain third countries (Text adopted by the Council on 20 June 1994)

- The joint reports, possibly accompanied by an internal note from Cirea, addressed to Steering Group I (Asylum/Immigration) and containing its observations, will be sent to the heads of delegations in that Group and they will be responsible for deciding on national circulation of joint reports within the limits laid down in the two indents below.

- The national authorities responsible for matters concerning asylum and third country nationals will be able to use the reports together with the other items of information at their disposal.

- Depending on national procedures, these reports may be made available to the parties involved in a dispute when there is an appeal against a decision by the authorities responsible for matters concerning asylum or aliens.
