".
With your permission, Mr President, that will be the last question that I shall be able to answer during this Question Time.
The honourable Member’s question concerns the unofficial opinions expressed by the Commission President. It is not therefore up to the Council to state an opinion on this matter. I should just like to point out that the Treaty system differentiates between taxes and indirect taxes which must be harmonised in order to ensure the proper establishment and smooth running of the internal market – according to Article 93 – and the approximation, laid down in Article 94, of legislation which has a direct bearing on the establishment or running of the common market, including legislation on direct taxation. The decisions taken by the Council on the basis of Articles 93 and 94 were taken according to the rule of unanimity. Following the Treaty of Nice they will, unfortunately, continue to be taken according to the rule of unanimity."@en1
