Many people have dealt with the issue of the treaty itself but I have never found most of the arguments very persuasive. The one exception is the argument about the decision to limit the number of commissioners. I have never understood how a Council of Ministers of 37 members can work, but a Commission of 37 members could not. How is it that a Council of Ministers which only meets occasionally can work efficiently, but a Commission with the same number of members which would meet often could not?
