Jeg må indrømme, at jeg har et indtryk af, at der her er tale om en vis grad af institutionelle territorialstridigheder, især i de store medlemsstater, hvor handels- og industriministerierne nærer stor modvilje mod, at Kommissionen fortsat udvider sit virkefelt inden for disse nye områder af WTO-forhandlingerne, og dermed også modvilje mod, at Europa-Parlamentet udvider sin indflydelse.
I have to confess I get the impression that there is a certain degree of institutional territoriality here, particularly in the large Member States, where the trade and industry ministries are very reluctant to see the Commission continue to extend its scope in those new areas in WTO trade negotiations and, consistent with that, also reluctant to see the European Parliament increase its influence.
