lpv:translated text	". Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, Community law is expanding and with it the need for jurisprudence and judicial decisions. If you will permit me to wax poetical on such a dry matter, the law and the way in which we frame it is perhaps the most valuable substance from which this Community is woven. The law protects the weak from the attacks of others, from claims to power and from violence. The law regulates the relations between people and institutions, protects freedom, democracy and solidarity. However, access to the law is also key. The law must also be upheld as necessary, by a court of law in cases of doubt. The Court of Justice of the European Union is increasingly having to deal with larger case numbers. This is hardly surprising in view of the expansion of Community law. Parliament has not closed its ears to the call to increase the number of judges. We have made a number of reasonable proposals for reducing the number of cases, increasing the number of judges and improving the modus operandi of the Court. The proposals have already been outlined by my colleagues. I must say, however, that there is one thing I fail to grasp: Parliament responds to this call and listens closely to what the public and judges have to say, draws up a solution in the trilogue with the Council and Commission, reaches an agreement and, in the end, nothing, absolutely nothing, happens. Why is that? It is because the Member States are unable to agree on how to appoint the judges. I find this unacceptable in this common Europe. I expect a little European responsibility from the Council too."@en1
