"Mr President, our voters deserve to know whether their elected governments stand up for them at Council of Ministers meetings. But, of course, they cannot, because these proceedings are held in secret. That is why I was happy to be one of the authors of Written Declaration No 45, calling for an end to this and calling for openness and transparency in the Council of Ministers. I would urge other MEPS to sign this written declaration. I would say to the British Presidency that this gives it an opportunity. It was in this very room that Tony Blair said that he wanted to give a lead in Europe and to re-engage the peoples of Europe. Here is something that the British Presidency could do easily and painlessly: end the secrecy; chalk up a success for the British Presidency. I suspect that by the end of December Mr Blair is going to need to have had one or two successes."@en1
