DECLARATIONS ADOPTED BY THE CONFERENCE1. Declaration on the European security and defence policyIn accordance with the texts approved by the European Council in Nice concerning the European security and defence policy (Presidency report and Annexes), the objective for the European Union is for that policy to become operational quickly. A decision to that end will be taken by the European Council as soon as possible in 2001 and no later than at its meeting in Laeken/Brussels, on the basis of the existing provisions of the Treaty on European Union. Consequently, the entry into force of the Treaty of Nice does not constitute a precondition.

Directive 77/187/EEC of 14 February 1977 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States
relating to the safeguarding of employees(cid:146) rights in the event of transfers of undertakings, businesses or
parts of businesses (1), amended by Council Directive 98/50/EC of 29 June 1998 (2) and Council Directive
98/59/EC of 20 July 1998 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to collective

national courts to resolve any disputes arising from this affair.

WRITTEN QUESTION P-0656/01

by Maurizio Turco (TDI) to the Commission

(26 February 2001)

Subject: Judicial

investigation into the use by the Puglia Regional Council of

funds earmarked for

professional training

Recent press reports state that the public prosecutor in Bari has begun an investigation into the use by the
Puglia Regional Council of funds earmarked for professional training, that various irregularities have come
to light and that the investigation was begun following reports by Mr Giuseppe Di Donna, a former
councillor responsible for professional training, of irregularities.

In addition, an interview with the President of the Italian Chamber of Deputies, Mr Luciano Violante, was
published in the newspaper (cid:145)La Repubblica(cid:146) on 18 January 2001 under the headline (cid:145)Provenzano gets his
hands on 16,000 billion of EU money(cid:146) says Violante: Cosa Nostra(cid:146)s new ambitions(cid:146).

Does the Commission not consider it appropriate to find out from Mr Di Donna whether or not the
financial interests of the Union have been harmed and to approach Mr Violante in order to ascertain how
real the danger he refers to actually is?

Has the Commission taken any action in connection with the two matters described above or does it
intend to take any action, and if so, what action?

Answer given by Ms Schreyer on behalf of the Commission

(3 April 2001)

The European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF) has stated that it opened an investigation into the use by the
Puglia region of funds earmarked for professional training on 28 July 2000.

The Commission is also providing any assistance that may be necessary. In particular it has given its
authorisation for one of its officials, an expert in European Social Fund financial procedures, to be
interviewed by the Bari Public Prosecutor(cid:146)s Office.
