This CBB only deals with CBU release from existing stock, it is doesn't perfom any CBU banking activities anymore. That is the same for CBBs in Rennes, Lille, Créteil, Lyon, Marseille and Poitiers. These are so called inactive CBBs.
The CBBs of Creteil and Grenoble have nonetheless answered the form with Banking Specifics, relying on practices they used when performing CBU banking in the past.
