82. Notes the ongoing difficulties with theat Seconded National Experts (SNE) are not counted in the one third of EEAS establishment plan as it seems that national experts inside the EEAS are not counted in the 1/3 part for Member States and there seem to be a overproportion of high ranking manff at AD level; nevertheless, recalls the Council decision establishing the organisation and fuctioning of the EEAS which states that "by the expiry of the contract of an SNE transferred to the EEAS under article 7, the function will be converted into a temporary agement posts; this development seems to be a result of pressure by Member States’ administrations on the EEAS in or in cases where the function performed by the SNE corresponds to a function normally carried out by staff at AD level, providerd to create high ranking posts for national civil servants;hat the necessary post is available under the establishment plan".
