Avis,
I notice that the agenda for today's meeting of the Commission includes the
following item, which probably relates to the Corpus Juris proposals for a
European public prosecutor, and which may explain the sudden revival of
interest in this topic:
LUTTE CONTRE LA FRAUDE
* 11. Proposition de directive relative à la
protection pénale des intérêts financiers
de la Communauté
- Communication de Mme SCHREYER en accord avec M. VITORINO
COM(2001) 272/2, /4 et /5 (F), SEC(2001) 810
- Réunion spéciale des chefs de cabinet SEC(2001) 799
I expect the COM document mentioned will be published as a COM final pretty
soon.
Best regards,
Chris
