Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2506/88 of 26 July 1988 instituting a Community programme to assist the conversion of shipbuilding areas (Renaval programme) (1), and in particular Article 3 (2) thereof,
Whereas Article 3 (2) of Regulation (EEC) No 2506/88 stipulates that the Community programme shall apply to areas which satisfy the criteria specified in Article 3 (1) (a) of that Regulation;
Whereas the Member State concerned must submit an application for approval of the areas to which the Community programme is to apply; whereas the Federal Republic of Germany has submitted such an application to the Commission in respect of the kreisfreie Stadt of Luebeck;
Whereas that area satisfies the abovementioned criteria,
The kreisfreie Stadt of Luebeck in the Federal Republic of Germany is hereby found to satisfy the criteria in Article 3 (1) (a) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2506/88. The Community programme instituted by that Regulation shall therefore apply to that area.

Whereas examination of the request for amendment has revealed that it is a minor amendment; whereas this is because, although an amendment to a registered name, which in principle should be considered a major amendment, it does not affect the rights of the holders of the name in question; whereas, furthermore, the amendment does not affect the rights of other producers;
Whereas, in accordance with the procedure provided for in Article 9 of Regulation (EEC) No 2081/92, the Commission decided in its Decision of 20 March 1998 not to apply the procedure provided for in Article 6 as it was a case of a minor amendment;
Whereas it has also been concluded that this is an amendment in compliance with Regulation (EEC) No 2081/92; whereas, therefore, the change of the name 'Ossau-Iraty Brebis-Pyrénées` to 'Ossau-Iraty` should be registered and the Annex to Regulation (EC) No 1107/96 should be amended accordingly;
Whereas, in accordance with Article 6(4) of Regulation (EEC) No 2081/92, the amendment of the name 'Ossau-Iraty Brebis-Pyrénées` to 'Ossau-Iraty` should be published in the Official Journal of the European Communities,
