I didn't have any "concerns", I was looking for clarity about what was meant by an "institution" given that a "city hall" was cited as an example...
Sounds like there are formally two distinct bodies in Paris which share buildings and staff. The fact that a given council meeting is either one thing or the other is a big clue: "Although Paris has a double role as a _commune_ and as a _département_, it has a unique method for governing both; the Council of Paris, with the Mayor of Paris as its president, meets either as a municipal council (_conseil municipal_) or as a departmental council (_conseil général_) depending on the issue to be debated." >From the website of the Mairie: "LES CONSEILLERS DE PARIS siègent à la fois au Conseil d'arrondissement dont ils sont élus et au Conseil de Paris où ils ont une double fonction : ils sont à la fois conseillers municipaux et conseillers départementaux." //colin On 2016-01-28 12:16, althio wrote: > Colin, > > Please see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Council_of_Paris > and tell me if it answers your questions and if I understood your concerns. > > - althio > > On 28 January 2016 at 12:10, Colin Smale <colin.sm...@xs4all.nl> wrote: > >> What do you mean with "institution"?
