lpv:translated text	". As you know, ladies and gentlemen – and I am bound to presume that, as a Member of the European Parliament, you do know – the Council only acts and only approves regulations at the proposal of the European Commission. It is the task of the European Commission to make the necessary proposals, which we then approve. If, at a later stage, the regulations we have adopted run counter to the national laws of a given Member State, it then falls to the Commission to open infringement proceedings and to take that country to the Court of Justice if necessary. The Court of Justice will then resolve the matter. The Council does not resolve disputes between countries, as I am sure you are aware We are talking here about an extremely delicate institutional balance and about regulations that are laid down in the Treaties and which have underpinned our co-existence since 1956. I shall, therefore, say that the Presidency is going to ensure that this institutional balance is maintained and that the prerogatives of each institution are respected. Consequently, if a given Member State’s legislation does not conform to the Community acquis or to the regulations laid down in the Treaty, let the European Commission start infringement proceedings against it and let the Court of Justice try the case."@en1
