Proposal amending the proposal for a Seventh Directive on aid to shipbuilding currently under 
discussion in the Council 
(90/C 248/02) 
Pursuant to Article 149 (3) of the EEC Treaty the 
Commission amends its proposal of ... as follows: 
Whereas, from the date of German unification onwards, the 
present Directive will apply in the territory of the united 
Germany; 
Whereas the shipbuilding industry in the German 
Democratic Republic will require an urgent restructuring 
process; whereas the immediate application of the common 
maximum ceiling for production aid may not facilitate this 
process; whereas particular arrangements should be allowed 
to enable the German Democratic Republic's shipbuilding 
industry to restructure gradually and to comply with the aid 
regime applicable to the Community as a whole. Article . . . 
1. Chapter II of this Directive shall not be applicable in 
the German Democratic Republic. 
2. Operating aid for shipbuilding and ship conversion in 
the German Democratic Republic may be considered 
compatible with the common market provided that: 
— the industry has undertaken a systematic and specific 
restructuring programme, including capacity reduction, 
which can be considered capable of allowing it to operate 
competitively after the end of 1992, 
— the aid is progressively reduced.
