A method and system for transmitting a position information from a mobile terminal of a mobile communication network via a network element to a network node, wherein a control information indicating the requirement of a position information of the mobile terminal at the network node is set in the radio interface message. This control information is checked at the network element as to whether a position information has to be forwarded or not. The position information is determined at the network element and may be combined with a higher layer information so as to generate a complete higher layer information to be forwarded to the network node. Thereby, a position information can be supplied to the network node without substantially increasing overhead and processing power required for the radio interface message.
