‘The reform of the Commission’, by Robert Boulay (RTL, 12 May 1970)

Son
In RTL radio’s news bulletin of 12 May 1970, Robert Boulay explains how the Six reached agreement on a timetable which will allow negotiations to be opened with the four countries applying for accession to the European Communities: Denmark, Ireland, Norway and the United Kingdom. Pierre Harmel, Belgian Foreign Minister, also explains how the forthcoming reduction in the number of Members of the European Commission from 14 to 9 — which means that his country may now nominate only one Commissioner — should not cause too many problems, despite the multilingual nature of Belgium.
