Origin - 2019 - Third part-session

In the draft opinion, delete paragraph 21.

Explanatory note

The proposal at paragraph 21 does not respect the Statute, art. 38, which clearly indicates that the funding must be proportional to the population of the Country. Moreover, Judges work for the Court, they work for the interests of all European citizens, not for their own country.
