"Mr President, the Commission work programme is ambitious, but I think there is one thing missing – I would like the Commission to place greater emphasis on the implementation of rules, laws, strategies and policies which are already in existence. We are creating more strategies and drafting new documents, but very many things are simply not being put into effect, particularly in the field of energy. Therefore, I think this should be a separate, special item in the Commission’s work. If the Commission does not make sure that laws which have already been passed are put into effect, it will simply not be very credible and will lose its legitimacy. This is also how we allowed major financial problems to occur in Europe – when we did not observe the Maastricht criteria. Many countries slowly began to ignore them or violate them, and now we have very great problems. Yes, this may be rather unimpressive, it may not look very good on paper, but I think it is crucial for the work of the Commission."@en1
