"We must be clear on this, Mr Krarup. Issues relating to the single currency are addressed jointly but solely by the eleven members of Euro 11. If Euro 11 wants to address any other type of issue which does not concern the single currency, this decision is shared with the other Member States which are not part of Euro 11. It is as simple as that. What cannot be avoided is that the coordination of the policies of the Euro 11 countries, particularly on the single currency, and the effect that these policies have on the overall context of the EU’s economic and financial policy do not appear to be linked to the EU’s own coordination. It is natural that there is prior coordination between these countries and it is natural that this coordination ends up having some influence on the final decision taken in Ecofin. This happens at contact group level and in the relations between various countries in various contexts. I know of several cases in which government sectors of EU countries meeting at Council level have talked separately and coordinated their positions so that these appear linked in the institutional contexts of the Union. You will say that this is not part of the normal procedure. That is true in that case but in the case of Euro 11 this is institutionalised in the Treaty and it is this which is specified. There should be no doubt on this."@en1
