"The package agreed by the 27 governments last weekend salvaged many of the practical institutional reforms that were contained in the constitutional treaty. However, it also dropped many key features: the notion of a ‘Constitution’; the loss of the title and status of ‘Foreign Minister’; the fact that the Charter of Fundamental Rights will not be spelt out visibly in full in the treaty, and not be enforceable in British courts; the removal of the symbols (flag and anthem); the abandonment of changes on legal terminology (where ‘regulations’ and ‘directives’ would have been called ‘laws’ and ‘framework laws’); the postponement of and changes to the new voting weights in the Council; and various derogations given to individual Member States, such as the UK.
These will be seen by the European Parliament as major sacrifices, but they are necessary to secure ratification of the package by all 27 countries."@en1
