"Mr President, in spite of their good points, both the Commission’s Fiscalis 2007 programme and the report by my esteemed fellow Member, Mr García-Margallo y Marfil, seem to be lacking something. I think that the report, and the programme, have forgotten the fiscal competences of certain regions that the Lamassoure report, as you will recall, terms ‘regions with legislative competences’ and ‘constitutional regions’. In fact, these are often nations that are already highly restricted by their own legal framework. This is the case of my country, Catalonia. With regard to taxes, situations can obviously differ. Thus, the Basque Autonomous Communities possess real power. The Catalan Autonomous Communities, meanwhile, do not have as much. In any case, all these political bodies would like to be able to establish direct links with the Commission. They would also like to be able to participate in Council meetings when their competences are at stake. The amendment we have tabled is along these lines."@en1
