Mr. Oliver Gilvarry:

We have had two Council working parties so far - one in October and one in November. The Bulgarian Presidency has announced two meetings in January. As I said earlier, very few member states are in favour of this proposal. The question of how far it goes will need to be revisited.

It is possible that those changes will be made within the European Council in the coming months. It is like asking how long is a piece of string.
