På den anden side, og det vil jeg her straks indvende, har videnskabelige undersøgelser, for eksempel inden for området erhvervsret, vist, at næsten 60% at den gældende lovgivning i dag har sin oprindelse i europæisk lovgivning.
However, and this is a matter which I am keen to raise here, academic studies undertaken in the area of commercial law have indicated that almost 60% of the laws which are in force in the various Member States have their origins in European legislation.
