The Celtic League have written to the President of the European Commission,

Romano Prodi, urging that the European Union respect the difficulties

of small States such as the Isle of Man which are peripheral to the

Union.

The Celtic League has said that the Commission should recognise that

there are often special cases or circumstances which make it necessary

for small States to swiftly aid their agriculture and fishery industries,

often as a result of policies introduced by the EU over which they

have no input or control. Such State Aid might not always seem to

meet criteria set by the EU but the Union should retain a sense of

proportion.

The League say that it would be distasteful if the European Union

used the economic muscle of an organisation which encompasses hundreds

of millions of people disproportionately.

Secretary General
