COUNCIL DECISION of 25 November 1980 supplementing, as regards the application of part of the second tranche of loans, Decision 80/739/EEC applying for the second time Decision 78/870/EEC empowering the Commission to contract loans for the purpose of promoting investment within the Community (80/1103/EEC)
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Decision 78/870/EEC of 16 October 1978 empowering the Commission to contract loans for the purpose of promoting investment within the Community (1), and in particular Article 2 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (2),
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (3),
Whereas Decision 80/739/EEC (4), authorized a second tranche of borrowings for an amount not exceeding the equivalent of a capital sum of 500 million European units of account ; whereas that Decision defined the sectors to which the product of those borrowings might be applied only with respect to an amount equivalent to a capital sum of 400 million European units of account ; whereas, as regards the equivalent of a capital sum of 100 million European units of account, that Decision provided that it might not be borrowed until the adoption of a further decision relating to the purpose for which such borrowing might be used;
Whereas it is therefore necessary to take a decision on the application of that part of the second tranche;
Whereas for that purpose the same sectors should be covered as in Decision 80/739/EEC ; whereas it is therefore advisable, by way of exception, to permit the application of the borrowings in question also to loans intended for the financing of factories constructed with a view to future requirements and of housing, provided that they form part of a total project of economic and industrial development presenting a regional interest,
HAS DECIDED AS FOLLOWS:
Sole Article
The product of borrowings of an amount equivalent to a capital sum of 100 million European units of account shall be applied to loans intended for the financing of: - investment projects as defined in Article 2 of Decision 80/739/EEC,
- factories constructed with a view to future requirements and housing, provided that they form part of a total project of economic and industrial development presenting a regional interest.
Done at Brussels, 25 November 1980.
