THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Council Act of 3 December 1998 laying down the Staff Regulations applicable to Europol employees(1), and in particular Article 44 thereof,

Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament(2),

Having regard to the review of remuneration of officials of Europol by the Management Board of Europol,

(2) The said review justifies an increase of 8,5 % of remuneration for the period between the date when the initial remuneration was established and 1 July 1999;

(3) It is for the Council, acting unanimously, to adjust the remuneration and allowances of Europol employees on the basis of the review;
