Payments to Nigel Farage MEP (UK)

We're waiting for D Spratt to read recent responses and update the status.

Dear Economic and Financial Affairs,

Under the right of access to documents in the EU treaties, as developed in Regulation 1049/2001, I am requesting documents which contain the following information:

All payments made to Nigel Farage by the EU since he became an MEP. This to include -

Salary as an MEP
Expenses paid
Claims made (with details of claims)
Payments in kind (non monetary)
All other payments made to this MEP.

Tax paid by Mr Farage on these payments

All of these to be broken down by year paid and the total paid to him since becoming an MEP.

Yours faithfully,

D Spratt

Dear Mr Spratt,

 

In accordance with Article 8(3) of the European Parliament's Bureau
Decision of 28 November 2001 (OJ C 216, 22.7.2011, p. 19), you are kindly
invited to provide us with your postal address with a view to permitting
Parliament to duly communicate its decision to you.

 

Article 297 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union
provides that ‘[...] decisions which specify to whom they are addressed
shall be notified to those to whom they are addressed and shall take
effect upon such notification’. 

 

The only way available to Parliament to establish with legal certainty
that the decision notification has taken place, as well as its date, is to
notify the decision to you via registered mail. Your sending us of your
postal address is therefore necessary to follow the procedure set out in
Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001.

 

Your postal address may be sent confidentially to the following address:
AccesDocs[at]ep.europa.eu or via Parliament’s dedicated public register
webpage:
[1]https://www.secure.europarl.europa.eu/Re....

 

Until reception of this information, Parliament is not in a position to
further process request A(2017)5156. Such processing requires your due
collaboration. The administrative procedure is therefore suspended for the
time being. In the absence of any answer within 20 working days, your
application will be considered withdrawn and the file closed.

 

We thank you for your understanding and apologize for any inconvenience.

Sincere regards
