No L 349 /62                        Official Journal of the European Communities                         28 . 12. 74
                                                COUNCIL DIRECTIVE
                                                  of 19 December 1974
                          extending Directive No 72/273/ EEC on aid to shipbuilding
                                                       (74/643/EEC)
            THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
             Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in
             particular Articles 92 and 113 thereof ;
             Having regard to the proposal from the Commission ;
            Whereas Council Directive No 72/273/ EEC ( ! ) of 20 July 1972 on aid to shipbuilding
             expires on 31 December 1974 ;
            Whereas the proposals which were submitted to the Council by the Commission on 5
             November 1973 are of a very complex character, comprising guidelines for an industrial
             policy for shipbuilding as well as a draft third Directive regarding direct and indirect aid
             in this sector ;
            Whereas it does not appear possible, having regard to the complexity of these proposals,
             that the Council can reach a decision on them before 31 December 1974, the date of
            expiry of the Directive ;
            Whereas provision should therefore be made for a further extension of the period of
            validity of Directive No 72/273/EEC and a period of six months should allow the
             Council to reach a decision ,
             HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE :
                                                         Article 1
             Directive No 72/273/ EEC of 20 July 1972 shall be extended until 30 June 1975 .
                                                         Article 2
            This Directive is addressed to the Member States .
            Done at Brussels, 19 December 1974 .
                                                                          For the Council
                                                                            The President
                                                                          J. P. FOURCADE
