26/07/2005 (Agence Europe) - In an article entitled “Rearranging the deckchairs”, The Financial Times of 20 July states that one of the most difficult tasks for President Barroso will this autumn be to decide “what to do about a number of the biggest beasts of the Brussels bureaucratic jungle - the Commission's directors-general - who are to be reshuffled”. The FT has reason to believe that the secretary-general of the Commission, David O'Sullivan of Ireland, will stay put - one problem less for President Barroso, who has other headaches, notably what to do about François Lamoureux, the “brilliant French lawyer who runs the transport and energy department” but who is also the “arch-federalist” who, working at night without telling his Commissioner at the time, Loyola Palacio, had penned a draft European constitution, the “Penelope paper”. Mr Lamoureux is expected to change posts as he is of the same nationality as the new Transport Commissioner, Jacques Barrot, the FT recalls, noting: “given his spiky and domineering personality, some commissioners seem rather reluctant to take him on”.
