The Committee on Constitutional Affairs adopted, following a special legislative procedure (consultation of Parliament), the report by Danuta Maria HÜBNER (EPP, PL) on the draft Council decision amending the Statute of the European Investment Bank.

The aim of the targeted amendments proposed by the EIB is to adapt the Statute of the Bank to reflect an increase in the EIB’s subscribed capital by Poland and Romania. The capital subscribed by Poland shall be increased by EUR 5 386 000 000 and that the capital subscribed by Romania should be increased by EUR 125 452 381.
