I think that the hon. Gentleman is right, and I am grateful to him for saying what he said about the officials in Brussels. They have an extremely onerous task to perform, and they discharge their duties with admirable competence.

With regard to the parliamentary aspects of the problem, I can tell the hon. Gentleman that certain measures are now being considered for improving the position and strengthening the powers of the European Parliament, and I favour the extension of the improvements as fast and as far as possible.
