## Introductory text

Council Regulation (EU) No 964/2011
of 26 September 2011
laying down the weightings applicable from 1 July 2010 to the remuneration of officials, temporary staff and contract staff of the European Union serving in third countries
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 336 thereof,
Having regard to the Staff Regulations of Officials of the European Communities and the Conditions of employment of other servants of the Communities laid down by Council Regulation (EEC, Euratom, ECSC) No 259/68, and in particular the first paragraph of Article 13 of Annex X thereto,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Whereas:
(1)
It is necessary to take account of changes in the cost of living in countries outside the Union and to determine accordingly the weightings applicable from 1 July 2010 to the remuneration of officials, temporary staff and contract staff of the Union serving in third countries, payable in the currency of the country of employment.
(2)
The weightings in respect of which payment has been made on the basis of Council Regulation (EU) No 768/2010 may lead to retrospective upward or downward adjustments to remuneration.
(3)
Provision should be made for back-payments in the event of an increase in remuneration as a result of the new weightings.
(4)
Provision should be made for the recovery of sums overpaid in the event of a reduction in remuneration as a result of the new weightings for the period between 1 July 2010 and the date of entry into force of this Regulation.
(5)
Provision should be made for any such recovery to be restricted to a period of no more than 6 months preceding the date of entry into force of this Regulation and for its effects to be spread over a period of no more than 12 months following that date, as is the case with the weightings applicable within the Union to the remuneration and pensions of officials and other servants of the Union,

## 

1 euro = x units of local currency (USD for Cuba, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ecuador, El Salvador, Liberia, Panama and Timor Leste).
Brussels = 100 %.
Not available because of local instability or unreliable data.
NB: Economic parity or purchasing power parity (PPP) is:
Number of monetary units required to buy the same product compared with Brussels (per euro).
The figure provided in the first column (PPP) is the product of multiplying the exchange rate (TX) by the weighting (CC).
The mathematical formula used to calculate the CC is therefore: PPP (provided by Eurostat) divided by TX = CC.
The amounts due to staff are calculated by applying the invariable PPP established by this table — not by multiplying each time the CC by the TX of the date of the transaction, since this TX is variable and will produce a different (wrong) PPP.
