Extract

The European Parliament (formerly called the European Parliamentary Assembly) met at Strasbourg from May 7 to May 11, 1962, under the presidency of Mr. Gaetano Martino (Italian Liberal). The President of the European Coal and Steel Community (ECSC) High Authority, Mr. Piero Malvestiti, reviewed ten years of his organization's activities. In conclusion, he called for a European energy policy to counter upheavals caused by the changing pattern of energy consumption. Mr. Ernst Muller-Hermann (German Christian Democrat) reported on transport, and the Parliament requested the European Economic Community (EEC) Commission to draw up plans and a timetable for instituting a common transport policy. The Parliament unanimously adopted a draft resolution presented by Mr. Marinus Van der Goes van Naters (Dutch Labor) deploring the lack of valid action following the Bonn declaration on political union of July 18, 1961, and called for resumed negotiations for a political union fully respecting the statute of existing communities, aiming at the adoption of a common foreign policy, strengthening the Atlantic Alliance, and providing for cultural cooperation, harmonization of legislation, and the peaceful settlement of disputes. The Parliament also adopted a resolution hoping for a successful conclusion as soon as possible of the negotiations with the government of the United Kingdom.
