Parliament decided to waive the immunity of Harald Vilimsky, a Member of the European Parliament, following a request from Austrian authorities over alleged breach of trust and embezzlement.

Key points

  1. The waiver concerns alleged offences under Article 153(1) and (3) of the Austrian Criminal Code, related to misuse of party funds for private purposes.
  2. The alleged acts occurred in 2013, before Vilimsky became a Member of the European Parliament in 2019.
  3. The alleged offence is not connected to Vilimsky's parliamentary duties, so immunity under Article 8 of Protocol No 7 does not apply.
  4. Parliament found no evidence of fumus persecutionis, meaning no indication that the proceedings aim to undermine Vilimsky's political activity.
  5. Parliament decided to waive immunity and instructed its President to forward the decision to the Austrian authorities and to Vilimsky.

Who is affected

  • Harald Vilimsky, Member of the European Parliament, whose immunity is waived for the alleged offences.
  • The competent authorities of the Republic of Austria, which will receive the decision.

Figures and deadlines

  • EUR 9 434.00, the total damage allegedly caused to the FPÖ's assets.

Legal basis: Articles 8 and 9 of Protocol No 7 on the Privileges and Immunities of the European Union, and Article 6(2) of the Act of 20 September 1976.
