COUNCIL REGULATION (EC, EURATOM) No 420/2008

of 14 May 2008

adjusting with effect from 1 July 2007 the remuneration and pensions of officials and other servants of the European Communities

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to the Protocol on the Privileges and Immunities of the European Communities, and in particular Article 13 thereof,

Having regard to the Staff Regulations of officials and the conditions of employment of other servants of the European Communities laid down by Regulation (EEC, Euratom, ECSC) No 259/68 (1), and in particular Articles 63, 65 and 82 of the Staff Regulations and Annexes VII, XI and XIII thereto, and the first paragraph of Article 20, Article 64 and Article 92 of the Conditions of employment of other servants,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Whereas:

(1)

Italy, on the basis of the national law adopted in December 2007, communicated the new data concerning the retroactive increase in the real remuneration of civil servants in the central government in that Member State with the date of effect of 1 February 2007, which falls in the reference period from 1 July 2006 to 1 July 2007, and therefore Eurostat modified the Specific Indicator for the reference period.

(2)

Since those data were not available at the time when the Commission presented the proposal concerning the reference period from 1 July 2006 to 1 July 2007, Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 1558/2007 which was adopted on the basis of that proposal did not take into account the actual increase in the remuneration in the Italian civil service.

(3)

In order to guarantee that the purchasing power of Community officials and other servants develops in parallel with that of national civil servants in the Member States, the remuneration and pensions of officials and other servants of the Communities should be adjusted under the additional review,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

With effect from 1 July 2007, the table of basic monthly salaries in Article 66 of the Staff Regulations applicable for the purposes of calculating remuneration and pensions shall be replaced by the following:
