"So as to make it absolutely clear: wood is an industrial commodity under Community law and it stands to reason that export aid, of the kind for which provision is made in agriculture, for example, should not be permitted under any circumstances where the export of wood is concerned. We can only apply existing Community law in such cases. Provision is made, under Article 87 of this Community law, for damage – and I repeat, damage – which is the direct consequence of a disaster, to be made good. In other words, firstly there has to be evidence of damage, and secondly, a direct link has to be established. You must also consider the following: if we were to entertain such an idea – after all, the price of wood is not just down in the French forestry industry, for the disaster has brought it down throughout the Community – then every other Member State would be within their rights to come and ask us to approve export aid. This would be a clear distortion of the market."@en1
