Brussels, 9 July 2003
Journeys in and around Brussels Requests - strictly for work purposes - must be made by telephone to the dispatching service (tel. 56565) and confirmed by e-mail to OIB BXL TRANSPORT or by fax (98686). If the Logistics and Services pool is unable to meet all the requests for an official car, a taxi service may be used. Taxis may be called only by the Logistics and Services Unit from the company under contract with the Commission. Members of staff who call a taxi directly will have to pay for it themselves. Missions outside Brussels Requests should be sent by e-mail (OIB BXL TRANSPORT), at least two days before departure, to the dispatching service of OIB's Logistics and Services Unit, together with a copy of the mission order signed by the Head of the Human Resources Unit of the Directorate-General concerned. The reason or reasons why it was impossible or more costly to use public transport must be explained. The pick-up point will be at a Commission building. Opening hours of the dispatching service Working hours of the car pool The car pool has the same official working hours as the Commission: Getting a car outside the dispatching service's working hours There is a standby service (tel. 56565) from 19.30 on weekday evenings (from 18.30 on Friday) for emergencies and essential work assignments. Outside the dispatching service's official working hours, and at weekends and on public holidays, taxi services ordered through the standby service will be used (see the Secretariat-General's standby list, or call 53000 to obtain the mobile phone numbers of the standby staff). Transport by bus Transport can be organised for groups. Requests, signed by the Head of the Human Resources Unit of the Directorate-General concerned, must be sent to the dispatching service (fax 98686). Transport of mail to Luxembourg The Central Mail sector of the Logistics and Services Unit provides a daily mail service between Brussels and Luxembourg (tel. 93299). Transport by lorry Requests must be sent in writing to the Logistics and Services Unit, or sent by fax to 98686 or by e-mail (OIB BXL Transport), stating: The Logistics and Services Unit will provide information regarding the cities served, frequencies and costs and will, where appropriate, investigate any ad hoc solutions meeting the departments' requirements.
