Olli Rehn and Sampo Terho had given notice that they had been elected to the Finnish Parliament.
Since, pursuant to Article 7(2) of the Act of 20 September 1976 concerning the election of the members of the European Parliament by direct universal suffrage, this office was incompatible with that of Member of the European Parliament, Parliament established under Rule 4(4) of its Rules of Procedure that the vacancies would take effect from 27 April 2015.
