WRITTEN QUESTION No. 1259/98 by Edith MÜLLER to the Council. Raising of a loan to purchase the D3 building in Brussels
Official Journal C 323 , 21/10/1998 P. 0120
WRITTEN QUESTION E-1259/98 by Edith Müller (V) to the Council (28 April 1998) Subject: Raising of a loan to purchase the D3 building in Brussels On 28 January 1998 the Bureau of the European Parliament decided to raise a loan of more than ECU 500 million, with the assistance of Société Espace Léopold, in order to be able to purchase the D3 building in Brussels. Can the Council say whether this is in line with the outcome of the discussions held last year in this connection between Parliament, the Council and the Commission? Joint answer to Written Questions E-1259/98 and E-1519/98 (13/14 July 1998) It emerged from the interinstitutional discussions mentioned by the Honourable Members that an indirect financing solution could be adopted. Furthermore, it is for the European Parliament, as an autonomous administrative body, to work out, in compliance with the Treaties establishing the Communities, in particular their financial provisions, and the national legislations concerned, the solution which it considers most appropriate for the acquisition of its buildings. The Council has not been informed of the inquiry referred to in point 3 of Question E-1519/98.
