[01] La Commission autorise la fusion des clubs du livre italiens de
Mondadori et de Bertelsmann
La Commission europ�enne a autoris� la fusion des activit�s de Mondadori
(Italie) et de Bertelsmann (Allemagne) dans le secteur des clubs du livre.
Bien que ces entreprises soient les seuls exploitants de clubs du livre en
Italie, elles doivent soutenir une forte concurrence �manant des canaux de
distribution existants et potentiels tels que les librairies, les
supermarch�s et l'Internet. Par cons�quent, l'entit� fusionn�e n'aura pas
de position dominante sur le march� de la distribution du livre en Italie
et n'y entravera pas une concurrence effective.
[02] European Works Councils
The European social partners (ETUC, UNICE, CEEP) are organising with the
support of the European Commission a major conference on European Works
Councils (EWC's) on 28-30 April 1999 in Brussels, Charlemagne building. The
aim of the conference is to take stock of the practical implementation of
the EWC's Directive four and a half years after its adoption by the Council
of Ministers. Some 500 participants will attend. The great majority of them
are members of EWC's and managers from individual European companies. A
press conference will take place on 28 April 1999, at 16.00 hrs, in the
Charlemagne building. The participants will be representatives of the
social partners and Padraig Flynn, Employment and Social Affairs
Commissioner.
