"In line with the opening statement by President Van Rompuy, my intervention is devoted to the implementation of the Lisbon Treaty. While, in theory, the creation of the High Representative’s double-hatted position looks good, in practice, given its ‘uniqueness’, it creates problems unforeseen by the authors of the treaty. In the absence of a deputy, equally double-hatted, the High Representative will more and more have to choose between staying in Brussels and being present, for instance, at the European Parliament, and flying to a foreign capital, where the EU needs equally high representation. Of course, Lady Ashton can ‘deputise’, but, if she does, it will have to be on an ‘ad hoc’ basis, at the expense of either the Council or the Commission. And if the ‘rotating Presidency’ steps back in to restore the balance, we end up with more bureaucracy, rather than less bureaucracy."@en1
