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 th£ same meeting the Council also
adopted measures relating to application of the Understanding by the
Community .                                  ■
The Council wished to establish a common period of application for this
Understanding and the Arrangement on guidelines for officially supported
export credits , which expires on 31 July 1981 ; it therefore agreed that
its decision on the OECD Understanding on export credits for ships would
apply until 31 July 1981 .   V
It is therefore desirable to extend application of the Decision until
31 January 1982 , the date also proposed for extension of the decision on
guidelines in the field of officially supported export credits .
