EU Treaty ratification
Please do not revert my changes again. I do not think you understand that Parliamentary procedure in the EU member states may be different. For example, in the British House of Commons, the European Union (Accessions) Act 2005 approved the treaty. At no stage during its Parliamentary approval were there any votes on it: it was always approved on a 'voice vote' in which all the voices supported it. Therefore there are no numbers, and will never be any numbers in the future.

The Austrian Parliament does things in a similar way. They raise their hands, and if the proposal has a clear majority, they simply note the number of members against without counting the much larger number who are for. Your insistence on putting in question marks is misleading - it implies that there is a number which has yet to be found and added. The real situation is that there is no number and never will be. Please feel free to discuss this with me if you have any problems. David | Talk 17:02, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
