Rådet godkendte dermed vores definition af degressiv proportionalitet og princippets omsætning i tal, anvendelsen af Eurostats tal til at beregne befolkningsgrundlaget og ønsket om at finde et mere stabilt system efter 2009.
The Council has thereby approved the definition we gave for degressive proportionality, the translation of this principle into figures, the use of Eurostat figures to evaluate the populations to be taken into account and the desire to find a more stable system after 2009.
