The status of public officials in Europe (1999)
Public administrations in Europe have a considerable number of functions assigned to them by modern government. These functions include various duties and powers the scope of which is determined by the legal framework, policy priorities and, more especially, the resources available to such civil services.

This report is designed to illustrate the multiplicity of public administrations in Europe and, in particular, to present the principles governing the recruitment, training, ethics and status or public officials in European countries.
