À sa réunion du 20 mars, la commission économique et monétaire a examiné la question et appuyé la recommandation du rapporteur de conserver pour base juridique l'article 95, ainsi que l'avait proposé la Commission, dès lors que l'objectif et la teneur de la proposition concernaient indubitablement la coopération administrative, et non des dispositions fiscales.
At its meeting of 20 March the Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs examined the matter and supported the recommendation of the rapporteur, that the appropriate legal base should indeed be Article 95 of the Treaty, as proposed by the Commission, as the objective and substance of the proposal undoubtedly concern administrative co-operation and not fiscal provisions.
