Is the present balance of power among large and small states appropriate? If every country continues to have one Commissioner only, is it viable that in the enlarged European Union 19 Commissioners should come from 19 countries with only 20% of the Union's population while the remaining six come from six countries which have 80% of the population? This is a very controversial and difficult issue. The big countries see it one way and the small countries another. It will not be an easy battle for the smaller countries but we should think it through.
