"Mr President, President of the Commission, let us start by talking about economic and financial subjects; you have stated, Prime Minister, that Denmark did not envisage being involved in the economic integration of the euro area. Could you reassure us of the swift implementation of legislative proposals on derivatives and the two regulations which must accompany the overhaul of the Stability and Growth Pact? We really do need these texts. Majorities – particularly a political majority – are forming on the tax on financial transactions; could you give us your exact political position on this matter? Next, I should like to draw your attention to trade policy. It is the Council that gives the Commission the mandate to negotiate on the Union’s behalf. It is a competence of the Union, and we, the European Parliament, have a new political competence to approve treaties on trade. I should like to draw your attention to the need to avoid being naïve and the need to apply the principle of reciprocity; for example, will proposals on negotiations with Mercosur be exchanged at the end of your Presidency? I would advise you to be very careful. Finally, with regard to growth, when President Van Rompuy came to tell us about the last European Council, I proposed holding a special European Council entirely dedicated to growth. You are a Member of the European Council, with a special position. President Schulz wishes to be invited to the European Council; will you support us on the presence of our President at the European Council and on the need to have a true European Council dedicated entirely to growth? I wanted to talk about social convergence but my speaking time has run out."@en1
