QUESTION (Libby Weiner, ITN):

Prime Minister, could you say how important you think it is that the issue of the Presidency is resolved here at Corfu?

PRIME MINISTER:

I think it is important to get the right result, but whether that will be here or not I am not sure, everyone would hope so.

QUESTION:

And what is wrong with Mr Dehaene?

PRIME MINISTER:

I think we had better wait and see what happens in the discussions, I have nothing more to say about that until we have had them.
