Staff reform about to start?


Before a single negotiation procedure between the Administration and the staff representation has been started or even announced, a Commissioner reveals to the press the existence of a plan to deeply revise the status and privileges of European civil servants to be disclosed in June 2011.
We can only hope that there is somehow a misunderstanding concerning the information provided by Commissioner Lewandowski to the press, but after having listened carefully to his presentation (from min. 21) we'll ask the Commission to clarify the situation.
