Note
-
There are numerous references to consistency in the treaty establishing the European Union. In the field of external relations, the main reference is to Article 3, as follows: 'The Union shall in particular ensure the consistency of its external activities as a whole in the context of its external relations, security, economic and development policies. The Council and the Commission shall be responsible for ensuring such consistency and shall cooperate to this end'.

Calculations by the author based on the 'EU Who is Who'. If one only counts official posts in the External Service, there are around 1,045 staff(including 725 AD). If one included these officials, plus contract staff, seconded national experts and young experts, the number increases to 2,255. There are in addition some 3,155 local staff, making a total of 5,470. On the Council Secretariat side, there are around 160 staff in the Directorate-General External and Politico-Military Affairs (DG-E), while the staff reporting directly or indirectly to the High Representative number around 103, of a total of 263. Depending on who is included as 'staff', the ratio is anything from 4.4:1 to 8.3:1. Information supplied to author, see also online at
