Not applicable.
Description
Comparator. Protocol No. 7 (privileges and immunities) gives members of ECB governing bodies immunity from legal proceedings for acts in their official capacity (CJEU reading, Art. 11(a)). The CJEU held in a 30 Nov 2021 judgment that this immunity does not cover conduct outside official duties, such as corruption. The draft law cites TFEU and Protocol No. 4 (ESCB Statute) as its EU basis, not Protocol No. 7.
