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, as amended by that institution,
Whereas the Statistical Office of the European Communities has carried out a verification, in respect of 1985, 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;
Whereas Article 64 of the Staff Regulations provides for equivalence of purchasing power existing between the various places of employment;
Whereas the Regulations establishing, with effect from 1 January 1986, the weightings applicable to Denmark, Germany, Greece, Spain, France, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and Portugal need therefore to be amended;
Whereas, in addition, the Statistical Office of the European Communities has undertaken an investigation in other places of employment; whereas it has appeared that for Culham, the difference in the cost of living in comparison to that of the capital city was significant and the number of officials employed there sufficient; whereas for Berlin a similar situation has arisen; whereas new weightings should therefore be fixed for Culham and Berlin with effect from 1 July 1987;
