COUNCIL REGULATION (ECSC, EEC, EURATOM) No 3294/88

of 24 October 1988

correcting the weightings applicable in Denmark, Germany, Greece, France, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom of the remuneration and pensions of officials and other servants of the European Communities

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing a Single Council and a Single Commission of the European Communities, Having regard to the Staff Regulations of Officials and the Conditions of Employment of Other Servants of the European Communities laid down by Regulation (EEC, Euratom, ECSC) No 259/68 (1), as last amended by Regulation (ECSC, EEC, Euratom) No 2339/88 (2), and in particular Articles 64 and 82 of the Staff Regulations and the first paragraph of Article 20 and Article 64 of the Conditions of Employment,

Having regard to Council Decision 81/1061/Euratom, ECSC, EEC of 15 December 1981 amending the method of adjusting the remuneration of officials and other servants of the Communities (3), and in particular the second subparagraph of Section II.1.1 of the Annex thereto,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission, submitted to the Council on December 1985 and repeated on 5 July 1988,

Whereas the Council had adopted in this field Regulation (EEC, Euratom, ECSC) No 3619/86 (4); whereas that Regulation has been declared void by the Court of Justice in its judgment of 28 June 1988 (Case 7/87 - Commission v. Council), the Court having however decided that the effects of the voided Regulation should remain in force until such time as the Council has enacted the measures that it is obliged to take in order to ensure that this judgment is enforced;

Whereas the measures should be taken that are entailed by the enforcement of the said judgment;

Whereas, in 1980 and 1985 the Statistical Office of the European Communities carried out a verification of the weightings for all Member States in accordance with the method for adjusting the remuneration of officials and other servants of the European Communities;

Whereas the findings of this verification have shown that the weightings that ought to be applied in a number of countries of employment diverge significantly from those in force at the time;

Whereas Article 64 of the Staff Regulations provides for equivalence of purchasing power between the various places of employment;

Whereas the Regulations establishing, with effect from 1 January 1981, the weightings applicable to Denmark, Germany, Greece, France, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom need therefore to be amended,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
