THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, 
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European 
Economic Community, and in particular Article 84 (2) 
thereof, 
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission ('), 
Having regard to the opinion of the European 
Parliament (2), 
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social 
Committee (3), 
Whereas the European Economic Community has adopted a 
set of rules governing maritime transport; 
Whereas, from the date of German unification onwards, 
Community law will be fully applicable to the territory of the 
former German Democratic Republic; 
Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 4055/86 (4) must be 
amended to take account of the special situation arising from 
German unification in respect of bilateral agreements 
concluded between the former German Democratic Republic 
and third countries; 
Whereas the agreements concluded by the former German 
Democratic Republic relate only to cargoes originating in 
that country; whereas, therefore, the rights which may be enjoyed by third countries as a result of cargo-sharing 
arrangements relate only to cargoes originating in the 
territory of the former German Democratic Republic; 
Whereas the time allowed for Member States to adjust 
agreements relating to trades not governed by the United

for adjusting those agreements.,

Article 1 
The following subparagraph is hereby added 
Article 4 (1) (b) of Regulation (EEC) No 4055/86: to

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, 
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in 
particular Article 100a thereof, 
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, 
In cooperation with the European Parliament, 
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee, 
Whereas it is necessary to take account of the fact that the immediate consumption on 
purchase of certain foodstuffs such as ice-cream in individual portions means that indicating 
the lot directly on the individual packaging would serve no useful purpose; whereas Council 
Directive 89/396/EEC (') should therefore be amended; 
Whereas, however, it is compulsory in the case of these products to indicate the lot on the 
combined package, 
HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE: 
Article 1 
In Article 2 (2) of Directive 89/396/EEC the following point (d) is hereby added: 
'(d) to individual portions of ice cream, provided that the lot is indicated on the combined 
packages.'

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES, 
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European 
Community, and in particular Articles 42 and 43 thereof, 
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, 
Having regard to the opinion of the European 
Parliament, 
Whereas, owing to the imbalance on the market for 
bitter varieties Regulation (EEC) No 2997/87 (*), as last 
amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1809/89 (2), provides 
for special measures of varietal conversion; whereas 
varietal conversion in the hop sector would be more 
effective when combined with land consolidation 
measures; whereas such land consolidation measures are 
currently carried out in the hop growing regions of 
Spain; whereas all hop area which is foreseen for varietal 
conversion shall be subject to land consolidation prior to 
conversion; whereas the time required for this land 
consolidation would not allow for the implementation of 
subsequent varietal conversion for a major part of the 
area in question within the time limit as provided for by 
Regulation (EEC) No 2997/87; 
Whereas in order to allow Spanish hop growers to carry 
out the necessary measures for land consolidation without being excluded from participation in the varietal 
conversion programme of the Community, the time limit 
by which conversion plans may be implemented should 
be extended; 
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 2997/87 should be 
therefore amended, 
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION: 
Article 1 
The following subparagraph is added to Article 2 (1) of 
Regulation (EEC) No 2997/87: 
'In the case of the Kingdom of Spain the members of 
the producer groups concerned shall undertake to 
implement the conversion plans before 31 December 
1994.'

Re-examined proposal for a 
THIRD COUNCIL DIRECTIVE 
on the coordination of laws, regulations 
and administrative provisions relating to direct insurance 
other than life assurance and amending Directives 
73/239/EEC and 88/357/EEC 
(presented by the Commission pursuant to Article 149.2(d) 
of the EEC treaty)

EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM 
On 25 February 1992, the Council adopted a comnv:>n position wi.lch took over 
the text of the amended proposal of 24 February 1992^1) for a third 
Council Directive on the coordination of laws, regulations and 
administrative provisions relating to direct insurance other than Life 
assurance and amending Directives 73/239/EEC and 88/357/EEC. 
On 13 May 1992, the Parliament approved the common position and proposed one 
amendment in order to clarify that the admissibility of cumulative 
preferential shares and subordinated loans in the solvency margin is a 
Member State option. 
This solution was also adopted in the directive on a definition of own funds 
for credit institutions and was approved by unanimity at the time of 
adoption of the common position. Unfortunately, the drafting of this point 
remains ambiguous. 
The Commission entirely supports parliament's objective and thus proposes to 
amend in Article 16 of Directive 73/239/EEC, as modified by Article 24 of 
the present directive, the introductory sentence of the seventh indent of 
paragraph 1. 
(1) COM (92) 63 final SYN 291. O.J. C 93 of 13 April 1992, p. 1 
PROVISION 
In Article 24, the introductory sentence to the 7th indent of paragraph 1 of 
Article 18 of Directive 73/239/EEC is replaced by the following : 
"- cumulative preferential share capital and suherdinated lean capital may 
he Included Put, If so, anly up to 50 X of the margin, no more than 25 X ef 
welt* shell eenslst ef suherdinated leans with a fixed maturity of fixed-
