Following a break down in negotiations between Korea and the EU, European Trade Commissioner Pascal Lamy informed the Council of the EU on 30 September 2002 that an amicable solution to the long-standing Korean unfair shipbuilding practices had not been found. The European Commission will now trigger the twin-track strategy approved by the Council on 27 June 2002: launch a WTO panel and authorise temporary and limited state aid for EU shipbuilders
