". The Barcelona European Council held on 15 and 16 March is another of those ‘technical summits’ that takes decisions which pass by unnoticed. In this case, rather than decisions, the rules by which the Member States have to abide are being made progressively stricter by means of some far from democratic procedures. In the run-up to the Council, Mr Romano Prodi sent a letter to the Heads of State and Government, setting out what – and I quote from that letter – ‘the Commission expects from the Barcelona European Council’. This is a particularly daring role reversal. The letter launches, in particular, an appeal to tighten up economic coordination, a subject on which I have already spoken during the debate, and also voices the requirement for a more timely transposition of European legislation by the Member States. The Council repeated these two points in its conclusions without questioning, in particular, the essential role of the national Parliaments in transposing EU law."@en1
