"I abstained on the Framework Agreement between the European Parliament and the Commission. Parliament, as colegislator, should refrain from trying to acquire ever greater powers at the Commission’s expense. The whole treaty, and nothing but the treaty: that is how Parliament curtails the Commission’s right of initiative. As President Buzek said: ‘We have just taken one step further towards the right of Members to initiate legislation’. When the day comes for Members to make legislative proposals, each lobby will find a Member to serve its own interests. I want to keep the tried and tested Community method – with the Commission as guardian and judge of common European interests – from which the exclusive right of legislative initiative stems. Increasing the number of meetings between the Commission and Parliament’s bodies is not the way to arrive at more effective European policy."@en1
