lpv:translated text	". Mr President, today we are facing the last leg of our work on treaty reform. If the Lisbon summit is to end in success, we need political imagination. Those who recognise treaty reform as a priority should ask themselves today especially: is it worth taking a firmer stance on Poland and the United Kingdom; is it worth placing a question mark over the outcome of many years of negotiation? If we are to believe its advocates, the Charter of Fundamental Rights can only reinforce the binding provisions we already have. But perhaps those who point to the essentially incalculable consequences of its provisions being used by the European Court of Justice are right. I have similar concerns, and I therefore entirely understand the reservations expressed by the United Kingdom and Poland. A major element of the compensation for the losses that Poland has decided to incur along with leaving the Nice system is the Ioannina mechanism and the permanent position of the Polish Advocate General at the European Court of Justice. The undermining of these settlements is currently raising questions for us about sincerity of intent. Like any other country, Poland has a right to expect better instruments to scrutinise the EU’s legislative process. The absence of proper legitimation will, after all, bring defeat for the European project in the future. Lack of scrutiny of the legislative process is not something dreamed up by Eurosceptics or warmongers, as the constantly somewhat agitated Martin Schulz would have it. It is something that worries sincere Europeans. The former President of the Federal Constitutional Court in Karlsruhe and former President of Germany Roman Herzog asked recently whether Germany was still a parliamentary democracy, considering how many regulations have come into being outside the Bundestag."@en1
