Therefore, regional aid schemes targeted at specific sectors of economic activity, as well as regional aid granted for activities in the steel sector, in the shipbuilding sector, as foreseen in the Commission communication concerning the prolongation of the Framework on State aid to shipbuilding , and in the synthetic fibres sector, should not be covered by the exemption from notification.

Furthermore, the extreme concern expressed by the Commission to reduce the distortions to which state support for cotton gives rise in world markets disregards a series of factors: first of all, the slight impact which European aid now has on this sector (an aspect recognised by the African producer organisations which signed the Seville Declaration of 7 November 2003); secondly, the fact that the EU accounts for only 2.6% of world production and is the largest importer, meeting up to 48% of its requirements through imports, which enter the EU on a duty-free basis; and thirdly the fact that world prices, which are highly volatile, depend above all on other factors such as the growing competition from ...[+++] synthetic fibres (with the adverse environmental impact this entails), strong fluctuations in world demand (which is today chiefly caused by the strength of the Chinese textile industry, a net importer of cotton despite its significant domestic production) and, last but not least, the aggressive cotton-supporting policies pursued by some developed exporting countries.

They also produce renewable raw materials that can displace synthetic fibres derived from petroleum and other mineral resources.
