Subject: Information to staff
As the President and Vice-President Kallas informed you before Christmas, the Council decided not to follow the method laid down in the Staff Regulations for the annual adjustment of the remuneration and pensions of EU civil servants. Thereby, in the Commission's opinion, the Council has not respected the link between the annual adjustment and the evolution of purchasing power for the member states' civil servants and has not respected the Staff Regulations.
We would like to inform you that the Commission decided today to bring an action for annulment before the Court of Justice against this decision taken by the Council. In addition, it decided to authorise the Legal Service of the Commission to file this action before the Court of Justice and to ask for the application of the accelerated procedure.
