"As they deal with the same subject, Question Nos 4 and 5 will be taken together: Question No 4 by Josu Ortuondo Larrea (): One of the decisions taken at the Seville European Council was that said Council should meet formally four times a year (twice as frequently as is currently the case), without prejudice to other informal meetings, and should draw up three-year strategic programmes starting in December 2003, on the basis of which annual operational programmes would be devised. Does the Council not think that this would lead to an increase in the influence exerted within the Community by the European Council – the body within which the Member States’ highest executive powers of government are concentrated and which controls the EU’s legislative by means of its component ministers? Does the Council not think that this would be to the detriment of the Commission’s executive powers whilst at the same time increasing the democratic deficit of a Union which does not practise the proper separation of public powers as prescribed by Montesquieu and as required of a modern democracy? Question No 5 by Bill Newton Dunn (): Should executive and legislative powers be separate? If not, why not?"@en1
