The building of EU Commission in Brussels got Fire, and Thousands of officials, 27 EU Commissioners included, were evacuated !

=> Strasbourg has many empty EU buildings with offices of good quality, around EU Parliament's tower, and could immediately provide shelter for all EU Commissioners and their main staff.

After all, each Month EU Commission holds a collective Session in Strasbourg, and several EU Commissioners stay all the week of EU Parliament's monthly session to reply to MEP's Questions, announce measures, etc.

>>> Wouldn't it cost less if all the EU Commissioners stayed all the time in Strasbourg ?

(They could leave, at least for the moment, in Brussels only the middle and lower-grade Secretariat, which could communicate by electronic means with Strasbourg's decision-makers).

Brussels hosted EU Parliament's sessions twice on September 2008, when EU Parliament's building in Strasbourg curiously collapsed.

So, now that EU Commissions's building in Brussels is on fire, Strasbourg should return the compliment...

La fumée venait des étages superieurs :

Peut être quelqu'un brûlait des papiers compromettants, avant l' imminent changement des commissaires ?

(P.ex. le socialiste finnois Oli Rehn se debarassait de quelques preuves de versements liés au projet turc controversé "Nabucco" ?)..

Oui apparemment les destructeurs de papier étaient mis hors service suite à une surcharge de travail.....

check out what might happen now, with the transition from Barroso to Juncker, on November 2014 !

May be it should be transfered to Luxembourg ?

(at any case, better keep some water with you, it might help to cope if it runs amoc. you never now what might really happen)..
