WRITTEN QUESTION No. 47/98 by Mark WATTS to the Commission. References on correspondence
Official Journal C 187 , 16/06/1998 P. 0140
WRITTEN QUESTION E-0047/98 by Mark Watts (PSE) to the Commission (29 January 1998) Subject: References on correspondence Would the Commission agree to adopt the practice of quoting references on replies to correspondence? I am sure that this would greatly assist Members to locate the appropriate papers when a reply is received. Answer given by Mr Santer on behalf of the Commission (20 February 1998) The Commission readily agrees that it is desirable for references to be quoted in reply to correspondence. The Commission's secretariat manual, and its dataprocessing arrangements, make provision for quoting references. Any inconvenience to the Honourable Member from a failure to quote a reference is regretted.
