WRITTEN QUESTION E-2807/00 by Robert Goebbels (PSE) to the Commission (4 September 2000) Subject: Use of an industrial site reclaimed through EU aid The European Development Area (EDA) situated between Longwy, Athus and Pétange/Rodange, and straddling the borders between France, Belgium and Luxembourg, has unquestionably contributed to the economic growth of this former steel-making area. The expenditure on infrastructure to create the Development Area, and also some other operations in this cross-border area, have been heavily dependent on the Community Structural Funds. It seems that the Luxembourg Government has just decided to allocate 4 hectares of industrial land, reclaimed with European Union funding, for the rebuilding of the Mathias Adam lycée in Pétange. Does the Commission regard this decision as being compatible with the objectives of the European Development Area? Did the European funds involved at the time also intend this industrial site to be used for educational activities? Answer given by Mr Barnier on behalf of the Commission (20 September 2000) The Commission is collecting the information it needs to answer the question. It will communicate its findings as soon as possible.
