The seventeenth session of the Assembly of the Inter Allied Reparation Agency, concluded on May 28, 1948, allocated as reparation among member governments equipment in thirteen German plants, ten of which were in the British zone of Germany and three in the French zone. This brought the total number of plants allocated to that date to 247. The Assembly also assigned the second list of commodities to be delivered by the USSR as part of German reparations. This action followed the agreement made at Potsdam whereby the USSR during a period of five years would make available to the IARA commodities equal to 60% of the industrial capital reparations received by the USSR from the western zone.
