European Parliament
Martin, David (PSE ).
I would like to coax the President-in-Office out of his reluctance to make a further comment. It is quite clear that immigration and asylum can only work if there is coordination between the 25 Member States. Does the President-in-Office believe that the national administrations now support European action in a way that they simply did not a year ago? In particular, does he believe that on 1 April, Ireland and the United Kingdom will sign up to a joint approach to tackling these problems?
