"Commissioner, we were very surprised to discover that you, a Commissioner with special responsibility for relations with Parliament, briefed the press in September before Parliament had even heard of these proposals. This was appalling of you. I cannot stress too firmly that you should have come to discuss them with Parliament before briefing the press. I am very surprised to hear that you have a sufficient legal base. I understand that the Council is discussing this at the moment and that your nuclear proposals are based on the wrong legal framework. You have actually got it wrong, Commissioner. Contrary to what the Commission has suggested, Articles 30, 31 and 32 of the Euratom Treaty are not applicable, as the Commission would be interfering with the safety of nuclear installations in respect of their technical operation. This is excluded under the Euratom Treaty. I should also like to inform you that in the Member States, particularly in the UK, questions are being raised concerning your support for reprocessing in some of your statements. I would like you to clarify that you are not supporting plutonium reprocessing of in these proposals."@en1
