WRITTEN QUESTION E-0017/98

by Jaak Vandemeulebroucke (ARE) to the Commission

(29 January 1998)

Subject: Language use in the Official Journal

Official Journal L 328 of 28 November 1997 contains a list of contracting authorities that are subject to the agreement concerning the award of public service contracts. On page 10, a list relating to Belgium appears only in French.

The Commission is aware of my concern with language use. Can I be informed why the above list appeared only in French? Am I to conclude that Dutch and German speakers are not subject to this procurement legislation?

Answer given by MrMonti on behalf of the Commission

(20 March 1998)

The Commission is conducting a detailed investigation of the problem raised by the Honourable Member and will inform him of the outcome as soon as possible.
