GENERAL BUDGET FOR 1983 
SECTION III - COMMISSION - PART ABrussels, 7 September 1983
TRANSFER OF APROPRIATIONS No II/1/83
from chapter to chapter within Title 2
From Chapter 28 Subsidies for balancing budgets
Article 289 European Schools
Item 2899 Provisional appropriation to cover
any adjustment to remuneration paid by the
European Schools - 80 000 ECU
To Chapter 29 Subsidies and financial contributions 
Article 299 Other subsidies + 80 000 ECU
GROUNDS
1. The purpose of this transfer is to ensure that classes at a school in 
Munich contributing to European integration can continue in September.
The Gymnasium Europeum Linguae Hungaricae is a private bilingual school for 
the children of Hungarian exiles. Unique in the Community and recognized by 
the Land of Bavaria, it is attented by 240 pupils of Hungarian origin from 
17 countries, and predominantly from Member States of the Community, who follow 
courses up to university entrance level.
The twin aims of the school are to educate children of mixed background in 
a Community spirit, including direct contacts with the European Parliament, 
without ignoring their national heritage, and to form a bridge between the 
European Community and Eastern Europe. The academic standards and general 
attitude of the school are in line with the wishes expressed by Parliament 
in its debate on Eastern Europe.
2. The school's commitment to the European Community and its special mission 
to non-Community Europe make it essential for the Commission to provide 
extraordinary financial assistance; otherwise it will have to close through 
lack of funds.
The deficit has been incurred because of the loss of a very large number of 
private grants.
The Commission was made aware of the school's financial situation on 
18 July, when it also received a report by the Court of Auditors of the 
Federal Republic of Germany dated 20 January 1983.
