The "Malfatti Commission" began as the integration process was relaunched: the EC adopted a financial framework and competed for the single market. There was also the beginnings of political cooperation, monetary cooperation, and of enlargement as talks opened with Denmark, Ireland, Norway and the United Kingdom.[1] He resigned from this post in 1972 to run for office in Italy.[2]
