The European Central Bank will be established following the confirmation by Heads of State or Government according to Article 109 j(4) EC as to which countries fulfil the necessary conditions for the adoption of a single currency. The Commission is presenting draft secondary legislation concerning the practical functioning of the European System of Central Banks and the European Central Bank. I. General considerations Article 105(4) of the Treaty (and Article 4(a) of the ESCB Statute) states that the ECB shall be consulted ". by national authorities regarding any draft legislative provision in its field of competence, hut within the limits and under the conditions set out hy the ( 'ouncil in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 106(6). "" The initiative for legislation using Article 106(6) as the legal base can be taken either by I he Commission or the ECB. following consultations between the Commission, the Member States and the EMI, it has been agreed that this Decision will be adopted on the basis of a proposal from the Commission. The purpose of this draft Council Decision is to set out within which limits and under which conditions the authorities of the Member States shall consult the ECB on any draft legislative provision within its field of competence. The obligations will be similar to those currently applying to national authorities with regard to draft legislative provisions that fall within the field of competence of the EMI (Council Decision 93/717/EC of 22 November 1993)1. The draft Decision seeks to ensure that the ECB is consulted at an early stage in the decision-making process and that adequate time is provided to the ECB to formulate its views. Consultation on draft legislation is obligatory. The rationale behind this rule is to ensure that the authority which has been given tasks in the monetary and financial Held has an opportunity to give its assessment of measures envisaged by other bodies, either at the level of the Community or in Member Stales, which have a bearing on its Held of competence. National measures are included because, in the perspective of EMI J, those measures may have an impact on the single monetary policy. The ECB OJ L 332 of 31. 12. 1993, p. 14 i. j will assess the envisaged legislative provisions against the compatibility with its lasks: the ECB will also provide expertise. Overall, the consistency of policies will be improved. Legislation specifying Community legislation following from the language of Article 105(4). limits and conditions is necessary for national but not The principles governing the present draft Council decision are the following: • • it aims at striking a balance between the need for making the opinion of the ECB known to those who take decisions and the wish to avoid undue burdens on the consulting authority as well as on the ECB. the Treaty requires consultation on any draft legislative provision in the ECB's field of competence. The draft decision enumerates a number of fields of consultation which relate to the tasks of the ECB specified in I he Treaty. This approach does not free national authorities from the obligation to examine whether drM'i legislation, while not fitting into one of the enumerated fields, may still be within the EClTs field of competence; however, the enumeration aims at keeping the consultations manageable. • allowance is made for the particularities of the legal systems of the Member States. In particular, Member States are given flexibility in organising the consultations of their various authorities with the ECB in light of their specific practices. • 2 the draft decision aims at increasing transparency and legal certainty as to what will be the right of the ECB and the obligations of national authorities. Comments on the Articles Article I Article I specifies the definition of "draft legislative provisions" and "participating Member Slates". The narrowest definition of "draft legislative provisions" would have restricted the coverage of the article to formal laws which are under preparation for adoption by Parliament. This narrow definition was, however, not retained for three reasons: first, it seems not to correspond to the intention of the authors of the Treaty, who would have chosen another term in this case; second, it would exclude actions of a legislative nature which are of relevance for the ECB; third, it would probably lead to unequal treatment of Member States because a measure taken in one country in the form of a law may be taken elsewhere in the form of a different legal instrument. the approximation of such provisions Article 100 EC provides some indication. It obliges the Council to "issue directives law, regulation or for administrative action the establishment or functioning of the common market". in Member States as directly affect laid down by "I ,aw and regulation" is generally seen as including: formal laws adopted according to national constitutional rules, and provisions which are derived from formal laws. Those provisions are characterised by their general applicability and by the fact that lhey set rules for an indefinite number of cases and arc addressed to an indefinite number of (natural or legal) persons. "Administrative action" is usually understood as the setting of rules by public bodies for subordinate bodies. Its inclusion in Article 100 is justified by the purpose of this article, which is to implement the internal market. Consultation of the ECB on such "administrative action" seems not to be covered by Article 105(4). The definition of "draft legislative provisions" in Article I thus makes use of the criteria of general applicability, indefinite number of cases and indefinite number of persons. The second paragraph exempts those draft legislative provisions from consultations which aim at implementing EU directives. This is because before the final adoption of such directives, the ECB will already have been consulted according to Article 105(4), first indent, furthermore. Member States are obliged to notify the implementation of directives to the Commission. Article 2 Article 2 defines the range of subjects for consultation. This list is to be seen against the tasks of the ECB set out in Article 105 of the Treaty and Article 3 of the Statute of the ECB. This list is, however, not exhaustive. Several changes are introduced in the draft Decision compared with Council Decision lasks of the ECB W 7 I 7 / EC applying to the EMI. These reflect compared with the different obligations of the EMI, and participating Member States and those with a derogation. The ECU will cease to exist as of'I January 1999, and hence consultation on its status becomes redundant. The reference to cross-border transactions in the indent on clearing and payment systems is dropped: this better reflects the wording of Article 105(2) of the Treaty. the different to reflect the need the obligation for non-participating Article 2. 2 of the draft Decision specifies countries to consult the ECB on draft legislative provisions concerning monetary policy instruments. In accordance with Article 44 of the Statute of the ECB, the ECB shall takeover those tasks of the EMI which, because of the derogations of one or more Member States, still have to be performed. Council Decision 93/717/EC requires Member States to consult the EMI on draft legislative provisions concerning monetary policy instruments as these fall within the competence ol the tasks of the EMI which are specified in Articles 4. 1 and 4. 2 of the Statute of the EMI. Inter alia, these tasks include the preparation of instruments and procedures necessary for carrying out a single monetary policy. The range of subjects for consultation is not exhaustive. National authorities shall consul! the ECB on legislative provisions which affect the tasks of the ESCB in accordance with Article 105(4) of the Treaty. The sixth indent of Article 2 of this Decision requires national authorities to consult the ECB on legislative provisions applicable to financial institutions in so far as they materially influence the stability of financial institutions and markets. However, this requirement is without prejudice to the present assignment of competences for policies relating to the prudential supervision of credit institutions and the stability of the financial system. Such a reference is desirable: • as regards its application to participating Member Stales so as to assist the ECB in properly fulfilling its competence to conduct monetary policy for the euro area. No specific reference to matters related to the stability oi' financial markets and institutions was needed in Article 105(2) as the efficient conduct of monetary policy is closely related to aspects of financial market organisation/institutions. individual Monetary policy institutions and therefore indirectly touch on areas where supervisory bodies are competent. At the same time, measures taken by competent supervisory authorities institutions influence those institutions' ability to create "book on individual money" and hence indirectly affect liquidity supply to the economy. impact on the liquidity situation of instruments • as regards its application to Member States with a derogation on the grounds that according to Article 44 of ECB Statute, the ECB shall lake over those lasks of the EMI which still have to be performed in stage 3 because of derogations. Article 3 The consultation of the ECB should not unduly lengthen the national legislative procedure. In order to facilitate their time schedules, national authorities should be allowed to set a lime-limit to the ECB for the delivery of its opinion, if they consider it necessary. The time-limit of one month strikes a balance between the interests of national authorities and those of the ECB. Upon expiry of this limit, the absence of an opinion shall not prevent further action in the national legislative procedure. This article provides that the time limit may be reduced in cases of extreme urgency. It also provides for the ECB to be able to request an extension of the time limit by four weeks. Article 4 (iiven the diversity of legal systems, each Member Stale should be given as much freedom as possible in devising the practical arrangements for the consultation of the ECB. Each Member State shall decide internally on the provisions necessary to ensure compliance with this draft decision. Article 4 also specifies which authority is obliged to consult the ECB when more than one is involved in legislation. Legislative provisions are often prepared by authorities other than the authority which takes the final decision (for instance, the government 10 proposes and the Parliament adopts formal laws; or a subordinate body prepares a regulation which is put into force by the competent Ministry), f Ience, the question is raised at which stage the ECB would have to be consulted. In thi-se cases, the ECB shall be consulted by the preparing or proposing authority because the ECB should be given the opportunity to express its views at a relatively early stage of the legislative process, so that they can more easily be taken into account, furthermore, in the case of formal laws this avoids that Parliaments of Member Stales would have to consult the ECB. Article 4 makes sure that the opinion of the ECB is transmitted, together with the proposal, to the adopting authority. Article 5 The obligation of national authorities to consult the ECB applies from the beginning of the third stage (see Article 109 e(3), i. e. from 1 January 1999. This Decision will therefore enter into force on 1 January 1999. The EMI, which currently is to be consulted according to Council Decision 93/717/1 vC, will go into liquidation upon the establishment of the ECB, i. e. several months before the beginning of the third stage. Therefore Council Decision 93/717/1ÎC has to be applied beyond the date of the establishment of the ECB until the beginning of the third stage, with the proviso that the body to be consulted is the ECB. To give opinions on draft legislation is a task which the ECB shall take over from the EMI according to Article 109 1(2). This clarification is made in recital No X. The second paragraph of Article 5 provides thai Council Decision 93/717/EC will only be repealed at the beginning of the third stage. 11 Proposal for a Council Decision | | on the consultation of the European Central Bank by national authorities on draft legislative provisions 5 S j o O £6 ( CA/S -\ HE COUNCIL Of TUT: EUROPEAN UNION, Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community and in particular Articles 105(4) and 106(6) thereof, and Articles 4 and 42 of the Statute of the ESCB and of the ECB, I laving regard to the proposal from the Commission2, I laving regard to the opinion of the European Parliament^, Having regard to the opinion of the [European Central Bank] [European Monetary Institute |4, ( I ) Whereas the European Central Bank, hereafter referred to as 'the ECB\ will be established as soon as its Executive Board is appointed; (2) Whereas the Treaty stipulates that national authorities shall consult the ECB on any draft legislative provision in its field of competence; whereas it is for the Council to set out the limits and the conditions of such consultation; (3) Whereas this obligation on the authorities of the Member States to consult the ECB shall not prejudice the responsibility of these authorities for the matters which are the subject of such provision; whereas Member States shall consult the ECB on any draft legislation in its field of competence in accordance with Article 105(4) of the Treaty; whereas the list of particular areas included in Article 2 of this Decision is not exhaustive; whereas the sixth indent of Article 2 of this Decision is without prejudice to the present assignment of competences for policies relating to the prudential supervision of credit institutions and the stability of the financial system.

The European Central Bank will be established following the confirmation by Heads of Stale or CJovernment according to Article 109 j(4) EC as to which countries fulfil the necessary conditions for the adoption of a single currency. The Commission is presenting draft secondary legislation concerning the practical functioning of the European System of Central Banks and the European Central Bank. I. General considerations The key for subscription of the capital of the European Central Bank (ECB) also determines the share of each central bank in the pooling oi' external reserves, the weights in voting in the ECB Council on financial matters and in particular, the tlistribution of the monetary income of the European System of Central Banks (ESCB) as a whole among national central banks. The initiative for legislation using Article 106(6) as the legal base can be taken either by the Commission or the ECB. following consultations between the Commission, the Member Slates and the EMI, it has been agreed thai this Decision will be adopted on the basis of a proposal from the Commission. According to Article 29. 1 of the Statute of the ESCB and the ECB, each national central bank shall be assigned a weighting in the key equal to the sum of 50 % of the share of the respective Member State in the population of the Community in the penultimate year preceding the establishment of the ESCB and of 50 % of the share of the respective Member State in the gross domestic product at market prices of the Community as recorded in the last five years preceding the penultimate year before the establishment of the ESCB. The national central banks have already contributed to the financial resources of the European Monetary Institute (EMI) in accordance with the key for subscription of the ECB's capital (Article 16. 2 of the EMI statute). The rules on the statistical data for the EMI resources were adopted by the Council in 1993. 5 The subject of this Council Decision are the rules which the Commission shall follow when it provides the statistical data for the establishment of the key. The rules include the definition and sources of the data on GDP and population to be used, and the determination of the method of calculation. The provisions of this Council Decision Council Decision No 93/716/EC of 22. 11. 1993, O. J. No L332/I2 o f. I I. 12. 1993. 16 are largely based upon the provisions applying to the EMI as set out in Council Decision 93/716/EC. When the ECB is established, it will have to establish the key by rounding up the percentages which result from the present Decision to the nearest multiple of 0. 05 percentage points, as required by the last sentence of Article 29(1) of the ESCB Statute. The data should be provided to the EMI before the day the establishment of the ECB becomes effective. The key will have to be adjusted every live years. 2. Comments on the articles Article 1 Article 1 defines what is covered by this Decision. In a narrow interpretation, the rules for the supply of the statistical data would just specify the concept and the sources of population and GDP to be used. However, methodological questions inevitably arise between the supply of the data for the individual countries and the calculation of percentages; these methodological questions are also covered by this- Decision for the sake of consistency and accuracy. Article 2 The appropriate definitions of population and GDP are those of the European System of Integrated Economic Accounts (ESA). In order to clarify which version of the ESA - liSA 79 or ESA 95 - is to be used, it is specified that the relevant version is that which is used for the application of Directive 89/130/EEC (GNP Directive). In 1998, this will be ESA 79. Article 3 Since the data on GDP represent a How over a period of one year, the population ligures to which they are related must represent the mean olThe total population over the course of the year. Article 4 This article defines the data on GDP. The last five years preceding the penultimate year before the establishment of the ECB are 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994 and 1995. Article 5 The Commission (Eurostat) will collect the data on population according to the established procedures. The Commission will draw on the Statistical Programme Committee in order to have the data validated. Article 6 17 GDP mp data for the years 1991 to 1995 are the data resulting from the application of the Council Directive on the harmonisation of the compilation of (JNP mp. These data are validated by the committee referred to in Article 6 of lhal Directive. Article 7 This article provides rules for the calculation of the shares of individual Member States in the population and GDP of the Community. Article H This article provides the rule for the calculation of the weighting of a Member Stale in the key. Article 9 This article provides rules on rounding. Article 10 Tbis article obliges the Commission to communicate the data to the EMI before the establishment of the ECB. 18 Proposal for a Council Decision | | on the statistical data to be used for the determination of the key for subscription of the capital of the European Central Bank 3K/°O^(CAJ S) II IE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION, Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community and in particular Article 100(b) thereof, and Articles 29. 2 and 42 of the Protocol on the Statute of the European Central Bank and the European System of Central Banks annexed thereto, I laving regard to the proposal from the Commission, I laving regard to the opinion of the European Parliament, I laving regard to the opinion of the European Monetary Institute, (I ) Whereas the European Central Bank, hereafter referred to as kthe ECB', will be established as soon as its Executive Board is appointed; (2) Whereas the initial capital of the ECB, which shall become operational upon its establishment, is ECU 5000 million; (3) Whereas Ihe national central banks will be the sole subscribers to and holders of the capital of the ECB; (4) Whereas the key for Ihe subscription of the ECB's capital will be determined when the ECB is established; (5) Whereas the statistical data to be used for the establishment of the key will be provided by the Commission in accordance with the rules adopted by the Council; (6) Whereas the nature of and sources for the data to be used and the method of calculation of the weighting of national central banks in the key must be defined; (7) Whereas Council Directive 89/130/EEC, Euratom of 13 february 1989 on the harmonization of the compilation of gross national product at market prices introduces a procedure for the adoption by Member States of data on the gross domestic product at market prices; whereas the Member States must take all the necessary steps to ensure that these data are transmitted to the Commission; HAS DECIDED AS FOLLOWS: 19 Article J The statistical data to be used for the determination of the key for subscription of the capital of the European Central Bank shall be provided by the Commission in accordance with the rules laid down in the following Articles.

EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM Stage three of Economic and Monetary Union will begin on I January 1999. The European Central Bank will be established following the confirmation by Meads of Slate or Government according to Article 109 j(4) EC as to which countries fulfil the necessary conditions for the adoption of a single currency. The Commission is presenting draft secondary legislation concerning the practical functioning of the European System of Central Banks and the European Central Bank. General considerations According to Article 40 of the Statute of the European System of Central Banks and the European Central Bank (ESCB Statute), the ECB shall enjoy in the territories of the Member States such privileges and immunities as are necessary for the performance of its tasks, under the conditions laid down in the Protocol on the privileges and immunities of the European Communities. According to Article 23 of the Protocol on the privileges and immunities,6 the Protocol on Privileges and Immunities is applicable to : - the ECB as a body; - the members of the Governing Council of the ECB; - the members of the General Council of the ECB; - the members of the ECB staff. This means that all Articles in the Protocol on the privileges and immunities are directly applicable to the ECB, with the exception of Article 15 which stipulates that the Council (of Ministers) determines the scheme of social security benefits. As part of the employment conditions, the scheme of social security benefits is to be laid down by the Governing Council of the ECB. Some Articles of the Protocol on the privileges and immunities apply without the need for further action, e. g. Article 1 (inviolability of premises). Article 6 (diplomatic status for official communications). Article 7 (laisser-passer). Several provisions of the protocol require secondary legislation in order to define their applicability. Article 23 was inserted by Protocol (No 7) annexed to the \:,C Treaty amending the Protocol on the privileges and immunities of the Huropean Communities. 22 One of these provisions is Article 13, according to which officials and other servants of the respective institutions and bodies are liable to a lax for the benefit of the Communities on salaries, wages and emoluments paid lo them by their employer, in accordance with the conditions and procedures laid down by the Council, acting on a proposal from the Commission. The purpose of this draft Proposal is to include the ECB instead of the EMI in the list of institutions and bodies whose officials are liable lo a Community tax according to the conditions and procedures laid down by the Council. The legislative action to be undertaken is to replace Article 12a of Regulation N° 260/68 by a new provision. The amended Regulation shall enter into force on the day on which the establishment of ihe ECB becomes effective. Comments on Article 1 This Article extends the coverage of the Council Regulation which determines the conditions and procedures for applying the Community tax (of the staff of the European Communities, the European Investment Bank, the European Investment fund and, until the date when it goes into liquidation, the European Monetary Institute) so that the Regulation includes members of the Governing Council and the General Council of the ECB as well as its staff and the recipients of pensions. The situation of the ECB is similar to that of the EMI. Neither are Community institutions in the sense of Article 4 of the Treaty establishing the European Community, but both enjoy immunities of the European the privileges and Communities. Therefore the provisions for the EMI have served as a model for the inclusion of the ECB in the Community lax scheme. According lo Article 109 1(2) EC, the EMI will go into liquidation upon the establishment of the ECB. According to Article 23 of the EMI Statute, all assets and liabilities of the EMI will then pass automatically to the ECB. Therefore the provision on the EMI in Council Regulation No 260/68 can be replaced by the provision on the ECB. 23 Proposal for a Council Regulation (EC, Euratom, ECSQamending Regulation (EEC, Euratom, ECSC) No. 260/68 which lays down the conditions and procedure for applying the tax for the benefit of the European Communities.

General considerations According lo Article 40 of the Statute of the European System of Central Banks and Ihe European Central Bank (ESCB Statute), the ECB shall enjoy in the territories of the Member Stales such privileges and immunities as are necessary for the performance of its tasks, under the conditions laid down in the Protocol on the privileges and immunities of the European Communities. According to Article 23 of the Protocol on the privileges and immunities,8 the Protocol on Privileges and Immunities is applicable to : - the ECB as a body; - the members of the Governing Council of the ECB; - Ihe members of the General Council of the ECB; - the members of the ECB staff. This means that all Articles in the Protocol on the privileges and immunities are directly applicable to the ECB, with the exception of Article 15 which stipulates that the Council (of Ministers) determines the scheme of social security benefits. As part of the employment conditions, the scheme of social security benefits is to be laid down by the Governing Council of the ECB. Some Articles of the Protocol on the privileges and immunities apply without the need for further action, e. g. Article 1 (inviolability of premises). Article 6 (diplomatic Article 23 was inserted by Protocol (No 7) annexed to the EC Treaty amending the Protocol on the privileges and immunities of the European Communities. 26 status for official communications), Article 7 (laisscr-passer). Several provisions of the protocol require secondary legislation in order to define their applicability. Among such provisions are Articles 12, 13 (2) and 14 which stipulate that officials and other servants are in certain respects immune from legal proceedings, arc not subject lo formalities for the registration of aliens, have Ihe right lo import free of duty certain personal equipment, and which specify rules for the national tax regime to which they are subject (for taxes other than those on salaries). According to Article 16, the Council shall determine the categories of officials and other servants to whom these provisions shall apply. The purpose of this draft Proposal is to include the ECB instead of the EMI in the list of institutions or bodies to whom Council Regulation No 549/69 applies. The amended Regulation shall enter into force on the day on which the establishment of the ECB becomes effective. Comments on Article 1 This Article extends the coverage of the Council Regulation which determines categories of officials and other servants to whom certain privileges and immunities apply (staff of the European Communities, the European Investment Bank, the European Investment fund and, until the date when it goes into liquidation, the European Monetary Institute) so that the Regulation includes the staff and the recipients of pensions of the ECB. The situation of the ECB is similar to that of the EMI. Neither are Community institutions in the sense of Article 4 of the Treaty establishing the European Community but both enjoy immunities of the European the privileges and Communities. Therefore the provisions for the EMI have served as a model for the inclusion oflhe ECB in Regulation No 549/69. According to Article 109 1(2) EX1, the EMI will go into liquidation upon the establishment oflhe ECB. According lo Article 23 of the EMI Statute, all assets and liabilities oflhe LvMI will then pass automatically to the ECB. Therefore the provision on the EMI in Council Regulation No 549/69can be replaced by the provision on the ECU. 27 Proposal for a Council Regulation (Euratom, ECSC, EQamending Regulation (Euratom, ECSC, EEC) No. 549/69 determining the categories of officials and other servants of the European Communities to whom the provisions of Article 12, the second paragraph of Article 13 and Article 14 of the Protocol on the Privileges and Immunities of the Communities apply NIECOUNCILOETIIEEUROPEAN UNION, 3 Ô |0 O 5 9 C C_N> ^ 1 I laving regard to the Treaty establishing a Single Council and a Single Commission of the European Communities, I laving regard to the Protocol on the Privileges and Immunities of the European Communities, and in particular Article 16 and Article 23 thereof.
