"Mr President, I would like to congratulate Ms Lichtenberger: this is a very interesting report on the question of respecting the law. We are engaged in observance of the law by European and national institutions, but perhaps there are times when we should give more weight to how we ourselves lay down the law, and whether we always remember the Treaty provisions that are of greatest importance to us.
Here is an example: the proposals under discussion today concerning reform of the common agricultural policy and the system of direct subsidies to farmers. The differences we see here between Member States in the distribution of subsidies discriminate, they quite clearly discriminate against some Member States, especially new Member States, in a way that is in flagrant breach of Treaty provisions. We should not allow legislation to be laid down that so clearly and blatantly discriminates against some and violates the provisions of the Treaty."@en1
