Bratislava is the new headquarters of the European Labor Authority, the EU's Employment, Social Policy, Health and Consumer Affairs Council has decided. 15 out of 28 votes went for the capital of Slovakia. Nicosia received 7 votes, and Sofia and Riga - 3. Nicosia was the most expected choice, because its offer was the most generous when it came to permanent free offices and the cost of adaptation.

Bratislava had proposed building rent without mentioning costs.
