of 23 March and 14 November 2011

amending the Implementing Measures for the Statute for Members of the European Parliament

2011/C 335/07

THE BUREAU OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 223(2) thereof,

Having regard to the Statute for Members of the European Parliament (1),

Having regard to Rules 8 and 23 of the Rules of Procedure of the European Parliament,

Whereas:

| (1) | Where Members take taxis in Parliament's places of work during weeks in which no official European Parliament activities are taking place, the fares should be reimbursed in the same way as for taxi travel during ordinary working weeks. |
| --- | --- |

(1)

Where Members take taxis in Parliament's places of work during weeks in which no official European Parliament activities are taking place, the fares should be reimbursed in the same way as for taxi travel during ordinary working weeks.

| (2) | Where Members travel outside the territory of the European Union to take part in an official activity, they often have to cover the cost of their visa and related expenses. Given that these costs arise in the course of official business, it would be appropriate for Members to receive reimbursement thereof, provided that they submit the necessary supporting documents. The change to the rules which this involves should apply as from 1 January 2012 so as to ensure that all journeys in a single year are treated in the same way. |

| (3) | In certain circumstances arising in the course of official journeys, Members are entitled to reimbursement of the cost of repatriation. Bearing in mind that repatriation may also give rise to associated costs, it would be appropriate to provide for those costs to be reimbursed as well. In order to meet this obligation, Parliament should take out an insurance policy. The insurance policy should take effect on the date of application of the relevant provision. |
