WRITTEN QUESTION No. 978/99 by Paul RÜBIG Discrimination against foreign-language lecturers at Italian universities
Official Journal C 325 , 12/11/1999 P. 0133
WRITTEN QUESTION E-0978/99 by Paul Rübig (PPE) to the Commission (15 April 1999) Subject: Discrimination against foreign-language lecturers at Italian universities Under Article 48 of the EC Treaty, Union citizens are entitled to work, settle or move freely within the borders of the European Union without being discriminated against on grounds of nationality. Contrary to this fundamental right, there have been loud complaints about alleged discrimination against foreign-language lecturers at Italian universities. Despite a judgment by the European Court of Justice on 2 August 1993, and a resolution adopted by Parliament on 13 July 1995, applicants for such posts are still being unjustifiably prevented from exercising their right freely to choose their employment. 1. Is the Commission aware of these incidents? 2. How does it propose to ensure that EU lecturers in Italy are able to exercise fundamental rights which are recognised throughout the European Union, and to prevent illegal discrimination?
