At a time when we are overstretched and short of cash I cannot believe that you would seriously consider lumbering us with another EU bureaucracy!!
If nothing else all our dealings with Europe provide evidence of how to slow things down, muddy the waters, work to the lowest common denominator etc. The MAR system worked perfectly well until a shortage of cash forced us to "lean" things. If anything is to be blamed here might I suggest might I suggest it is aimed at those who introduced civilian business, profit maximising processes to the military. We do not need another EU juggernaut!!
