COMMISSION DECISION No 3316/80/ECSC of 18 December 1980 on a special rapid enquiry, concerning iron and steel undertakings    THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,  Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Coal and Steel Community, and in particular Article 47 thereof,  Whereas, under Article 46 of the Treaty, the Commission has the task of laying down general objectives for modernization, long-term planning of manufacture and expansion of productive capacity for the iron and steel industry in the Community.
