The market for solid fuels in the Community in 1992 and the outlook for 1993. Commission report. (revision of Commission report SEC (93) 441 final of 25.03.1993).

Abstract

This report summarises the results obtained in 1992 and gives the Member States' forecasts for 1993, on the basis of the information forwarded to the Commission in .June 1993. The purpose of this report is to inform the ECSC Consultative Cqmmittce and those concerned about developments in the market for solid fuels in the Community as early as possible. The report thus updates the information contained in the Commission's annual report on "The market for solid fuels in the Community in 1992 and the outlook for 1993"(1), which gave the forecasts made at the end of 1992 and in January 1993. At the end of the current year, a new report will be drawn up with the provisional results for 1993 and the outlook for 1994. The information contained in this document, unless specified to the contrary, does not cover the new German Uinder since the necessary data, in particular the forecasts for 1993, arc largely unavailable. It should also be noted that, when the main report was prepared in March 1993, forecasts for 1993 were not available for the United Kingdom. The Commission used the same figures for 1993 as those given for 1992. This situation has been rectified for this report, which accounts for some of the large discrepancies in the forecasts for 1993.
