"The Gebhardt report’s undisguised intention to institutionalise judicial cooperation and make it into a supranational affair by setting up Eurojust is based upon a highly problematic premise. There is not just one, but there are fifteen different legal systems in the EU. Working these different legal traditions into the EU’s bureaucracies could lead to an élitist and non-transparent system without any form of democratic support. Nor will such a system be able to solve the problems faced by the Member States.
We are also strongly opposed to the ambition to make the EU into a constitutional State by establishing ‘independent legislative, executive and judiciary’ bodies ‘with counterbalancing powers’. It is still the Member States, as constitutional States, which must be at the heart of European cooperation. That is why we are voting against the report."@en1
