KAROLUS programme: exchange of national officials between administrations (amend. Dec. 92/481/EEC)

In its common position on the extension of the KAROLUS programme, the Council has incorporated as it stands the Commission?s amended proposal, which took on board almost all the amendments adopted by the European Parliament at first reading. In particular, the Council has incorporated the amendments relating to the budgetary planning of the programme (ECU 12.2 million over 7 years) and the overall number of participants in KAROLUS (i.e. 1,340 participants). Only the amendment concerning comitology (which had been rejected by the Commission in its amended proposal) was rejected by the Council.�
