  Early in 1979 when the preliminary draft "budget for 1980 was drawn
  up , the date , envisaged for Greece * s accession to the European
  Communities , viz . 1 January 19 81 , was still hypothetical . There
  was also an element of uncertainty as to the number of Commission
  Members .

  to provide the necessary accommodation for the new Greek Member ,
  fairly radical conversion work "being necessary to provide him with
  a suite of offices on the thirteenth floor of Berlaymont for his
  own use said on the twelfth floor for members of his cabinet .

  alterations to the meeting room and to leave the decision to the
  new Commission . This means that there is considerably less work
  to "be carried out than was originally planned and the estimated
  cost is now down to 309 000 EUA , "broken down as follows :
