"Mr President, I might say in response to Mr Bowis’ question that not only animals but MEPs also suffer in this Chamber, when timetables change and it is sometimes quite boring to have to wait. However, my thanks go to the representative of the Council for still having answered my question.
The European Court of Justice exercises power in a remarkable way. For the public to really be able to see that the Court’s application of the law meets all the criteria of independence and objectivity traditionally associated with a court of law, the application of law must be undertaken openly. I would like to thank the Presidency of the Council for being of the same opinion as I am on this but how significant would you say the justifications for decisions are, and the fact that the individual opinions of the judges and the bases of interpretation, especially regarding the sorts of cases that have given rise to debate, will remain forever in the dark? Should we not include the future status of the European Court of Justice on the IGC agenda, so that these clauses in the Treaty can be amended insofar as this matter is concerned?"@en1
