Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach
Scrutiny of EU Proposals
Ms Lenka Filipkova:
As Mr. Ryan explained and as I mentioned before, this is not a measure this is adopted under Article 41.2. It is a measure adopted within the framework of Article 173. It is linked to industrial policy. In accordance with Article 173 of the treaty, the Union is to contribute to the achievement of the objective of speeding up the adjustment of the industry through structural changes.
In this particular case, it is a different industry. We are supporting the industry, not the final production.
