lpv:translated text	". I have no problem with this, Mrs Jackson, in terms of transparency. The only country which has declared itself to be in favour of a directive is Denmark. The other Member States are against it. I will now tell you once again why the rest of my colleagues are not here. It is because, as I am President-in-Office, and because my attitude is always to be the “last of the Mohicans”, I have taken the decision to represent the Commission for the whole week, with the aim of making things easier for our new colleagues who will be meeting next Wednesday. It is also because COREPER must meet in Brussels. COREPER has a decision to make. The new decision must be made official by midnight on the 16th, and that is why the administrative machinery must be set in action. But think carefully. Presenting a directive when you know that 14 Member States are against it, is still a task fit for heroes. Try it. One of the points that you will be negotiating in the European Parliament, with the “Prodi Commission”, is the sharing of responsibility for legislative initiative with the European Commission. I think that this will prove to be extremely useful for the European Parliament, because maybe then you will discover that working with the Council of Ministers is much more difficult than just producing a report."@en1
