Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, the Amsterdam Treaty has been mentioned today, yet this Treaty was not even allowed to mention the institutional consequences of the transition to Economic and Monetary Union.
Signor Presidente, signor Commissario, onorevoli colleghi, alcuni hanno evocato qui il Trattato di Amsterdam, ma quel Trattato non poteva menzionare le conseguenze istituzionali del passaggio all' UEM.
