European Union tames linguistic diversity
The European Commission has cleared its linguistic backlog after the EU expanded from 15 to 25 members in May 2004. The expansion added nine new languages to the list of official EU languages. The recent terrorist attacks in London have added urgency to the timely translation of priority documents dealing with security and anti-terrorist measures. According to EU BusinessWeek, the EU executive arm said that over 400 extra staff had been added for translating documents.
