". While noting with approval the restrictions introduced by the rapporteur on the European Commission’s sphere of competence and freedom of action, limiting and adjusting its capacity to intervene in the area under consideration, I abstained from voting on this report because I believe that its conclusions stem from a legal decision with which I do not agree. Indeed, this report appeared after the decisions of the Court of Justice, delivered in judgments of 5 November 2002, were made public. These judgments resolved the positive conflict of jurisdiction between various Member States and the European Commission. Observing the imprecise, even deficient nature of existing legislation in this area, the Court of Justice decided, as is becoming its custom and practice by force of repetition, to confer on the Commission the jurisdiction it claimed. While this is nothing new, it is nevertheless deplorable that the principle of subsidiarity is for the most part interpreted in a concentrationary, upward-looking way by Community institutions, limiting the ability of Member States to draw up contracts independently, and thus running counter to its own aims and origins."@en1
