   C0MC82 ) 872 final
 ---pagebreak---                   EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
1 . At its meeting of 28 April 1981 the Council decided to conclude
    on behalf of the Community the OECD Understanding on export credits
    for ships as it resulted from the negotiations held under the
    auspices of the OECD and completed on 18 March 1981 .    At the same
    meeting the Council also adopted measures relating to the application
    of the Understanding by the Community .
2.  The decision of 28 April 1981 applied until 31 July 1981 .    Since
    then it has been extended on several occasions , the last time
    until 31 January 1983 by the decision of 28 July 1982 .
3.  The OECD Understanding on export credits for ships is an instrument
    of international discipline in the field of export credits .    It is
    in the Community 's interest that it should continue to be applied
    after 31 January 1983 , but , as in the past , it is desirable that
    the extension should be for a limited period only .
4.  The Commission therefore invites the Council to adopt the draft
    decision submitted herewith , extending the application of the
    Understanding until 31 July 1983 .
