Jar Sub Part Q Ftl
 

Being signed up this week alledgedly, anyone know the truth?

Yep heard the same but can't seem to get clarification http://instagiber.net/smiliesdotcom/...inkai/sh1a.gif

Last I heard it was in front of the Transport Council last week and it was up to them whether to put it back in front of the Parliament. TC don't have the power to put it into law, only to recommend / reject it to the Parliament.

It was discussed by the Council's aviation working group last week and today but the Transport Council itself does not meet again until December. From what I've heard it is possible but by no means certain that agreement will be reached. The meeting agendas for the working groups can usually be found on the Council's website http://ue.eu.int/cms3_fo/showPage.as...lang=en&mode=g

Even if the Transport Council does agree, it is is part of a larger proposals which, as I understand it still needs some further work.

With respect to Big Tudor's comment that the Transport Council
"don't have the power to put it into law, only to recommend / reject it to the Parliament" this is a bit of a simplification of the issue. The proposal comes under the co-decision procedure in which both the Council and the Parliament have an equal say in the matter.
