My conslusion on this is the complete opposite: The national governments take every opportunity to please the big multinationals, and the federalistic powers of the Union must be given more power to cancel it out. The Council consists of officials not primarily elected for their Europan Union positions, while the democratic Parliament is. Over and over again the Council pulls out the patent directive of its hat, and so far the Parliament keeps shooting it down.
