"Firstly I would like to say that the previous speaker, my illustrious committee chairman, was being slightly disingenuous because there is no real demand for a European public prosecutor. Only two weeks ago in Parliament we saw huge tranches of her own report being deleted because they contained references to such a body.
There will be some dissension among the various political parties in this House but many people are concerned about what this is actually leading to. I do not think you were being completely fair with us, Commissioner, when you said it will only go so far and no further. Will it lead to
? If you say no to this question, how can you reconcile that with the answer that Mrs Delmas-Marty gave our committee a month ago? Mrs Delmas-Marty is the former head of the supervisory body of OLAF and she has written many books on this particular subject. She said yes – a European public prosecutor will almost certainly lead to
a common body of law throughout the Community.
What would be the core competences of the European public prosecutor? What powers would he or she have? What are the Community's financial interests? Surely you are not ignoring political signals sent by both the Council – many countries are against this – and Parliament, which, as I said at the beginning, two weeks ago rejected many things to do with the European public prosecutor?"@en1
