Save as otherwise provided in the Treaties, any aid granted by a Member State or through State resources in any form whatsoever which distorts or threatens to distort competition by favouring certain undertakings or the production of certain goods shall, in so far as it affects trade between Member States, be incompatible with the internal market. The intent of this was that in order to avoid favouring a certain company or commercial group, an EU member state should not provide support by financial aid, lesser taxation rates or other ways to a party that does normal commercial business. For example, it would be considered illegal state aid by the EU if a government took over an unprofitable company with the sole intent to keep it running at a loss. However state aid can be approved by the European Commission in individual circumstances.

Letter to The Times, 24 August 1869, pg. 10 This generated fresh publicity that Chatterton was not fit to be managing what was widely regarded as Britain's national theatre. All his ventures so far proving successful, Chatterton took over the leases for the Princess's Theatre and the Adelphi Theatre; he knew both theatres were running at a loss but did not realise the true extent of these until later, and was forced to use the profits from Drury Lane to cover the losses at the other two theatres until he was able to sell the leases on. From 1870 to 1873 Chatterton produced no Shakespearian productions at Drury Lane, but the 1873–4 season opened with a spectacular production of Antony and Cleopatra in which Cleopatra sailed on her barge down the Nile (not the Cydnus) and the Battle of Actium was fought between galleys on a canvas sea.
