Whereas under Articles 3 and 1 respectively of the above Commission Decisions the Belgian Government is required to give the Commission advance notification of all individual significant cases of aid to be granted otherwise than under a sectoral or regional programme;
Whereas the Commission defined significant cases as follows:     - cases where the value of the investment is two million units of account or more, regardless of the value of the aid,
- cases where the value of the aid, expressed as net subsidy equivalent, is 15 % or more of the value of the investment, regardless of the value of the investment;
Whereas with regard to the first of these two criteria - which refers to the importance of the value of the aided investment - account must be taken of changes in investment costs in establishing the level above which the Belgian Government must give the Commission prior notification of its decisions to grant assistance;
Whereas this level should be fixed by reference to the European unit of account (EUA) as that has been defined by Commission Decision 3289/75/ECSC of 18 December 1975 (3);

In Article 2 of Decision 75/397/EEC of 17 June 1975, the expression "two million u.a." is replaced by "three million European units of account".
The rate of exchange for the European unit of account in terms of national currencies to be used during each year shall be that for the first day of the year for which exchange values for the European unit of account into all the currencies of the Community are available.
This Decision is addressed to the Kingdom of Belgium.
