quango

Je suis frappé par le fait que l'Union européenne crée encore un "quango" ("organisme non-gouvernemental quasi autonome"), dont le fonctionnement, comme la plupart des autorités que l'UE met en place, s'avérera cher et qui sera superflu.
It strikes me that the European Union is creating a further quango which, like most authorities the EU sets up, will be expensive to run and turn out to be a white elephant.
