	EUObserver:&nbsp; BRUSSELS - EU member states are on Friday (6 January) to discuss the latest draft of a new pact on the financial crisis, focusing on how the European Commission can sanction debt-sinners and how to merge the new treaty with EU law despite a UK veto.

	According to the latest draft version of the new pact sent to national governments on Thursday, the commission "may, on behalf of contracting parties" bring a legal case before the European Court of Justice if the countries...]]></description>

	BusinessWeek:&nbsp; Industry groups with members including Microsoft Corp. and Google Inc. warned the European Union against setting “overly strict” data privacy rules, claiming they would harm technology development in the region.

	“Overly strict, static and bureaucratic data-protection rules will have a detrimental impact on Europe’s economy,” said 11 industry associations, including the Business Software Alliance, which counts Microsoft among its members, and IAB Europe, which has Google...]]></description>

	BigPond:&nbsp; EU leaders have called for Brussels to gain new powers to rewrite national budgets, in a radical step deemed necessary to ensure the euro survives.

	European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso said officials from the European Union (EU) executive must be able to demand changes to national budgets before they are adopted by domestic MPs.

         <description><![CDATA[
	EUObserver:&nbsp; BRUSSELS - The European Commission has proposed perhaps the most radical shift in decision-making away from parliaments and toward unelected bodies in the history of the European Union.

	Under proposals unveiled by the EU executive on Wednesday (23 November), while formal domestic lawmaking procedures are to remain in place, almost all fiscal policy decisions would be taken out of the hands of national assemblies and delivered up to European civil servants.

	VOA:&nbsp; Key European Union officials say the continent needs to oversee the spending of individual countries to ensure the survival of the euro currency and resolve the burgeoning debt crisis.

	Both European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso and EU President Herman Van Rompuy called Wednesday for further integration of Europe's economic affairs. Barroso told the European Parliament in Strasbourg that the continent is “now facing a truly systemic crisis.” He said that without...]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[
	Shopshire:&nbsp; Eurozone countries will have to swallow “a big loss of national sovereignty” by pooling resources and control over fiscal policy to restore long-term stability to the single currency, Chancellor George Osborne has said.

	Mr Osborne said that the global economy was at its “most dangerous moment” since the crash of 2008, with real risks to British jobs and growth.

	But he insisted once again that the UK will not be part of any EU fiscal integration and will not bear the...]]></description>

	Spiegel:&nbsp; Virtually nothing is more sacred to Germans than their constitution, which is known as the Basic Law. It was originally planned as a stopgap measure, but it has seen the Federal Republic of Germany through the past 62 years. During the Cold War, political parties may have squabbled over conservative Chancellor Konrad Adenauer's political commitment to Western Europe and the United States -- and they had their differences over left-leaning Chancellor Willy Brandt's Ostpolitik...]]></description>

Original post: Big news on the Greece front: In order for the country to get future bailout money, the country will have to give up some sovereignty.
Specifically, according to a bombshell FT report, outside authorities will take over various functions related to tax collection (a big time problem in Athens) and privatizations.
None of this is certain yet. It's just what's on the table, and no doubt politicians in the country will flip out.
But every attempt to cut the deficit has...]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[Israel National News:&#160; 
The European Union decided that a bailout of Portugal could not wait until the Portuguese had conducted their elections. Portugal was effectively made an offer that it could not refuse: either&#160;accept the bailout or the European Central Bank would refuse to buy Portuguese bonds, thus driving interest rates skyhigh and triggering a default.&#160; Prime Minister José Sócrates had no choice bu to assent to the €78 billion aid package.
By doing so he made the...]]></description>

The liberals in the European Parliament are pushing for the 2014 EU elections to be held in May instead of June, in order to provide enough time for the next Commission president to be chosen from the ranks of newly-elected MEPs.
Background
Last October, MEP Andrew Duff (ALDE; UK), told EurActiv in an&#160;interview&#160;that Guy Vehofstadt, leader of the liberal ALDE group in the European Parliament, would be "very pleased" to appear on the first-ever transnational list in...]]></description>
