Det kan altså ikke være politikernes opgave - her er jeg enig med Dem, hr. McCreevy - at sørge for flere eller færre fusioner, men derimod handler det om kun at sikre, at balancen ikke bliver fuldstændig forrykket.
In short, the task of politicians – as Commissioner McCreevy has said – cannot be to decide whether more or fewer mergers will take place but only to ensure that the whole system is not thrown out of balance.
