lpv:translated text	". Behind the ostensibly neutral title ‘on legal bases and compliance with Community law’, the own-initiative report by the Committee on Legal Affairs hides the complete subjugation of national law to Community law. Fully aligned with the philosophy of the ΕU, the report maintains that the Community should have the facility to force the Member States to impose specific criminal sanctions in the event of infringements of Community law. The term ‘criminal sanctions’ carries a great deal of weight, which distinguishes it from the administrative or financial sanctions which the rulers of the ΕU already impose. The report also proposes that the Commission should be able to appear in national criminal courts in order to bring civil actions and even to force the Member States to impose prison sentences decided by the Community. All we need now are Community gaols to carry out Community sentences! This is yet another infringement of national sovereignty and the so-called ‘rule of law’ of the bourgeoisie, in that a supranational body is being instructed to exercise criminal jurisdiction and to decide on the type and level of sanctions. Of course, the anxious search for legal bases hides the ambition to serve the interests of the unifying monopolies in all sectors and the sweeping away of democratic achievements."@en1
