CELEX – Date of Debate Field (debate)


The Date of Debate field in the CELEX database on Justis is part of the DATE group, and contains the date of a debate on a Resolution or Opinion, followed (where appropriate) by the Economic and Social Committee session number. For example:

Date of Debate     1999/05/27=SESSION 364

Date searching in this field is restricted to searching for an exact or truncated date; the date search operators are not available. It is possible to use a search such as "1999 and 05", but this will find documents for the 5th day of the month as well as for May.

In the Outline, this field is called “Date of Debate”.

In documents, this field is shown as “Date of Debate”.

If you want to use the Date of Debate field on the Quick Search screen or in the Full Text box on the Search In EU screen, its name is “debate”, and you can use a search such as:

debate[1999/05*]

Used only in the Proposals database (Sector 5).
