Request for the waiver of parliamentary immunity of Birgit Collin-Langen
2012/2128(IMM)
The European Parliament decided to waive the immunity of Birgit COLLIN-LANGEN (EPP, DE).
The request to waive immunity relates to proceedings concerning an alleged offence under Section 331 of the German Criminal Code (corruption).
Given that Ms Collin-Langen has herself indicated that she prefers a quick conclusion of this issue and is of the opinion that her immunity should be waived and that the alleged activities do not have a direct, obvious connection with the performance of her duties as a Member of the European Parliament, Parliament decided to waive Birgit COLLIN-LANGEN’s immunity.
