(7) While the Commission is empowered to decide in such cases, due to the particular sensitivity of the issues at stake, Member States should also fully assume their responsibility in the decision- making process. This, however, is not the case when Member States are not able to reach a qualified majority, due to, amongst others, a significant number of abstentions or intentional non-appearances at the moment of the vote. Therefore, by virtue of the politically sensitive nature of the act which led to the blocking, the matter should be referred back to the Council for a final decision.
