The Confederal Group of the European United Left/Nordic Green Left (GUE/NGL)1 continued to reiterate its message that the answer to this crisis was not the imposition of even greater austerity but more policies that put the interests of ordinary people above those of bankers, shareholders and the financial elite. Among the measures devised by the EU institutions to counter the crisis was the creation of yet another Treaty, the so-called Fiscal Compact, to ensure greater stability, coordination and governance in economic and monetary union; the European Semester, a mechanism whereby member states are asked at six-monthly intervals to align their budgetary and economic policies with the objectives and rules agreed at EU level; structural reform of the EU banking sector as well as steps towards the creation of a Banking Union.
