E-3053/00 by Sérgio Sousa Pinto to the Commission
Subject: Discrimination against non-nationals in French law (Organic Law No 98-404 of 25 May 1998)

Constitutional is what it means, but according to this official EU translation iit's 'organic'.

No, my answer is only a general answer - i.e. 'loi organique' can be translated as 'organic law' no matter which actual law it refers to. Because the Belgian and French legal systems are much more similar to each other than the British system, I think it's a safe bet that it applies to both countries. It's inevitable that it 'sounds' wrong in English (but let's try to avoid the excesses of Eurobabble if we can).

Alain, I've looked at the ref for Pinto. re "non-ressortissants francais", are you saying the law in 1990 was the same in Belgium? Many thanks indeed fr help
