"Mr President, ‘
. The ancient Roman poet Juvenal knew the problem all too well: who guards the guards? Who polices the police? And who notices when the EU’s anti-fraud office itself breaks the rules?
Well, in this case, it is supposed to be the scrutiny committee, and their report is pretty scathing. You cannot record phone conversations without legal basis, you cannot open 423 cases on the same day without so much as reasonable suspicion, and you cannot mislead Parliament about fraud figures. But now we need to know the truth.
We need these questions to be put to Mr Kessler in public at the Committee on Budgetary Control. We need to grill him and find out exactly what has been going on. If there is no satisfactory response, then – for once in this place – heads must roll. It is not just about Juvenal, but Caesar’s wife must be above suspicion."@en1
