    WRITTEN QUESTION E-1772/02

    by Michl Ebner (PPE-DE) to the Commission

    (21 June 2002)

    Subject: The EU as contracting party to a Unesco Convention

    In the third paragraph of the answer given by Commissioner Reding to my Written Question E-0730/02(1) of 29 April 2002 entitled: Year of the Mountain the Dolomites as a World Heritage Site, the Commission states that the EU is not a contracting party to the 1972 Unesco Convention Concerning the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage.

    Would it not, then, be sensible for the European Union to become a contracting party to Unesco conventions?

    (1) See page 50.

    Answer given by Mrs Reding on behalf of the Commission

    (6 August 2002)

    The Convention mentioned by the Honourable Member does not contain a clause allowing the Community to becoming a contracting party.
