The COM documents and the opinions of the ESC

are available on paper and microfiche.

This version of the catalogue takes account only of

documents of which English language texts have

been prepared. There are parallel catalogues

cover-ing documents in each of the 10 other official

lan-guages of the European Union.

1987, the COM document numbers have been used

as microfiche reference numbers.
