Ms Lenka Filipkova:

I repeat that we are here in the framework of Article 173. For the industrial policy, the prescribed legislative procedure is ordinary legislative procedure. The Council had the right to decide and judge. The European Parliament and all these institutions agreed that, according to the European legislation, this treaty base was correct and this is how the measures were constructed. It is not direct production or sending of ammunition; it is helping the industry ramp up its capacities so that it can eventually produce. The support itself is not for the production but for the ramping up the capacity under Article 173.
