"I would firstly like to thank you for your answer to the previous question on this same subject.
As you will have realised, the reply just given by the President-in-Office of the Council is the same as the one he gave to Question No 6. I would like to point out that Article 203 of the Treaty establishing the European Communities speaks of ‘ministerial rank’ and, both in the meetings of the Councils of Ministers and during the Presidency, there is quite naturally participation by representatives of the Belgian regions or autonomous communities, or whatever you want to call them, and also – as the MEP who spoke about this said earlier – the region or nation of Scotland, the German
or the Austrian States and other such examples within the Community.
In this regard, I would like to ask whether you consider the Spanish Government’s action in this respect to be appropriate. When talking about, for example, economic and financial affairs, or a plan for budgetary stability, it reaches agreements with the other governments of the Union, but when the same is to be raised on the level of the Spanish State, you impose it by law, instead of seeking agreement and consensus with the Communities which have exclusive competence in these areas."@en1
