WRITTEN QUESTION E-3952/00

by Glenys Kinnock (PSE) to the Commission

(13 December 2000)

Subject: Index-linking of war pensions

Will the Commission investigate the question of war pensions being index-linked or means-tested in the Member States of the European Union?

Answer given by Mrs Diamantopoulou on behalf of the Commission

(5 February 2001)

The matter of compensation of war victims remains a responsibility of the Member States. The Commission has no powers to investigate this matter, and Member States have so far not expressed an interest in exchanging information on war pensions in the framework of the Community institutions.
