P
7:04Peter Tom JonesGUEST
In fact, the European Court of Auditors published a report recently, not a rock-solid policy was the title of the report, in which they clearly show that for most of the key critical minerals, the volumes have actually dropped from those MOU countries.
P
7:21Peter Tom JonesGUEST
So rather than boosting the volumes flows of those materials to Europe, they've actually gone down.
P
7:28Peter Tom JonesGUEST
And the reason is, of course, very simple, because it's not only Europe which is talking to these countries.

Gray was a pioneer member at the European Court of Auditors, finance director for agriculture and structural funds, and later director general of the Commission's internal audit service, responsible also for some forty EU agencies before retiring in twenty twelve.
P
