PRESS RELEASES OF THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES

1975-October 1993

 

PRESS RELEASES OF THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION

November 1993-1994

 

 

Prior to the adoption of Regulation 1049/2001 on transparency and access to documents, most Council documents were not available to the public.The press release issued after each meeting is the official record of discussions, along with information published in the Bulletin of the European Communities.The content ranges from brief notes on topics and more detailed outlines of decisions to formal conclusions.

 

The sheer volume of the releases covered by AEI-EU precluded recording each individually.It was decided to compile them into documents covering set time periods.The cover sheet on each compilation lists the meeting numbers and topics. Each compilation contains bookmarks for the individual meetings.

 

Council releases started to appear on the Commissions RAPID database in 1993, but not as a complete collection until 1995. It was decided to include the 1993-1994 releases on AEI-EU. Releases issued from 1996 to date can be found in the Councils Press Room.

 

Only European Community legislation printed in the paper edition of the Official Journal of the European Union is deemed authentic.
