In Mr Walker's view the Commission proposal was full of good intentions, but mirrored a lack of understanding of how markets work.

Kenneth Walker var enig med Rainer Franz og påpegede, at Kommissionens forslag om fradragsret for visse udgifter lå nøjagtigt midt imellem Colin Lustenhouwers og Thomas Delapinas synspunkter.
Mr Walker agreed with Mr Franz and pointed out that the Commission proposal on the deductibility of certain expenditure fell precisely halfway between the positions of Mr Lustenhouwer and Mr Delapina.
Kenneth Walker var ikke tilhænger af ændringen, da den ville være i modstrid med udtalelsen vedrørende elektronisk handel.
Mr Walker opposed the amendment saying that accepting it would make the opinion inconsistent with that on electronic commerce.
Kenneth Walker var modstander af ændringsforslaget, thi hvis præsidiets sammensætning blev fastsat til 24 medlemmer, ville man på udvidelsestidspunktet komme i konflikt med kravet om repræsentation af hver medlemsstat.
Mr Walker opposed the amendment, because if the number of bureau members was fixed at 24, one would be in contradiction, at the time of enlargement, with the requirement of each Member State being represented.

Mr Walker was disappointed by the opinion which he did not feel tackled the fundamental issue of the democratic deficit that was, in his view, absolutely essential in any discussion of governance.

Mr Walker, on his support for the "polluter pays" principle, and his opposition to an energy tax;
Kenneth Walker vendte sig mod forslaget.
Mr Walker spoke against.
Kenneth Walker vurderede, at et initiativ til forbedring af medlemmernes finansielle vilkår ikke ville være på sin plads, så længe ØSU ikke havde modtaget decharge for regnskabsåret 1996.
Mr Walker thought steps to improve members' financial statute would not be appropriate until the Committee had received the discharge for the 1996 budgetary year.
Kenneth Walker ønskede, at man udtrykkeligt sagde, at en række anmodninger er i skarp modstrid med Cardiff-reglerne, og at studiegrupperne ikke bør holde mere end to møder og højst indkalde 1 ekspert.
Mr Walker hoped it would be pointed out that a number of the requests clearly ran counter to the Cardiff rules and that the study group members should not hold more than two meetings or use more than one expert.
