Most recent appearances
- [Mr. Eric Illsley in the Chair] — European Commission Annual Policy Strategy (2 Jul 2009)
“If the CAP had not been implemented, like in many other areas of industry subsidised in the past by nation states, competition law and the development of the EU single market might have been more effective. Instead we have this large EU project that seems to have been relatively immune to reform, although I accept that some—but far too limited—progress has been made.”
- [Mr. Eric Illsley in the Chair] — European Commission Annual Policy Strategy (2 Jul 2009)
“indicated dissent.”
- [Mr. Eric Illsley in the Chair] — European Commission Annual Policy Strategy (2 Jul 2009)
