C 170 E/54 Official Journal of the European Communities EN 20. 6. 2000 (2000/C 170 E/059) WRITTEN QUESTION E-1622/99 by Antonio Tajani (PPE-DE) to the Commission (15 September 1999) Subject: Infringement proceedings against the Italian government for the sale of the Rome Central Dairy Can the Commission provide the results of the investigation carried out in the context of the infringement proceedings against the Italian government and the Rome City Council in respect of the sale of the Rome Central Dairy? Answer given by Mr Fischler on behalf of the Commission (8 October 1999) The comments of the Italian authorities which they sent under the procedure provided for in Article 88(2) (formerly Article 93) of the EC Treaty have now been studied and the Commission has requested additional information from the Italian authorities on the measures taken by the City of Rome. At this stage, the Commission is awaiting this additional information. After analysing all the comments received, the Commission will be able to take a final decision on the measures in question. (2000/C 170 E/060) WRITTEN QUESTION E-1624/99 by Markus Ferber (PPE-DE) to the Commission (15 September 1999) Subject: EU funding for a chicken farm in Vseruby (Czech Republic) A German consortium is planning to build a chicken farm for 1,2 million laying hens and 200 000 chickens on the Bavarian-Czech border. There are considerable objections from the local population because of the possibility of pathogens being carried by the wind. Will the chicken farm in Vseruby be financed directly or indirectly by European funding (e. g. under PHARE)? Answer given by Mr Verheugen on behalf of the Commission (29 October 1999) The Commission can confirm that the poultry farm to which the Honourable Member refers does not receive Phare support. Neither is the Commission aware of any other Community funds being used for this purpose.
