21. The German Government also submits that, inasmuch as it was awarded for the purpose of resale to third parties, the contract at issue is excluded from the scope of Directive 92/50 by reason of Article 1(a)(ii) of that directive, read in conjunction with Article 7 of Council Directive 93/38/EEC of 14 June 1993 coordinating the procurement procedures of entities operating in the water, energy, transport and telecommunications sectors (OJ 1993 L 199, p. 84). In that regard, as the Advocate General observes at point 34 of his Opinion, it must be held that Article 1(a)(ii) of Directive 92/50 excludes from its scope contracts awarded in the fields covered by Directive 93/38, because the Community legislature wished those contracts to be covered only by Directive 93/38. The exception laid down in Article 7 of Directive 93/38 would therefore apply only if the contract at issue fell within the scope of that directive. Inasmuch as that contract does not come within the activities referred to in Article 2(2) of Directive 93/38, the exception laid down in Article 7 of that directive cannot apply in the present case.
