Structural improvements in inland waterway transport (amend. Regulation (EEC) No 1101/89)

The Commission's amended proposal takes over the EP amendments providing for the possibility of a scrapping operation after 1995 for an additional period of four years until 1999 inclusive and seeking to create a legal basis for a contribution from the Community budget to the restructuring operation for a further year for one more year than was the case in the Commission proposal. The Commission also accepts that the Regulation should enter into force on the actual day of its publication. �
