"Mr President, I will start with the final part of the supplementary question. With regard to the IGC agenda, this is something that is still alive and well, and it is obviously possible to return to the question raised by the honourable Member on that agenda. This secrecy regarding deliberations which exists in the current versions of the Treaties is, in any case, justified to the extent that it is an effective means of preserving the independence of the judges, the adoption of decisions and, furthermore, the consistent interpretation of Community law. If the varying opinions of the judges were to be made public, that would, at least for the present, be at odds with the structure of the Community’s legal system. This practice, which exists in some Member States, is accounted for by those countries’ legal histories and is the result of the distinctive features of their judicial systems. The practice, which exists in one or more Member States, would, however, be quite difficult to transfer to a Community court, without making agreement on decisions harder as a result of the change."@en1
