No L 180 /32                      Official Journal of the European Communities                            3 . 7 . 74
                                                COUNCIL DIRECTIVE
                                                     of 27 June 1974
            on the extension of Directive No 72/273/ EEC concerning aids to shipbuilding
                                                       (74/320/ 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 of the Commission ;
           Whereas Council Directive No 72/273 / EEC (') of 20 July 1972 concerning aids to ship­
            building, expires on 30 June 1974 ;
            Whereat 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 aids
            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 the Commission s proposals before 30 June
            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 31 December 1974.
                                                          Article 2
            This Directive is addressed to the Member States .
