In addition, Euroscepticism in states such as the UK and Denmark is fed in part by the CAP, which Eurosceptics consider detrimental to their economies. In recent times change has been more forthcoming because of external trade demands and intrusion in agricultural affairs by other parts of the EU policy framework, such as consumer advocate working groups and the environmental departments of the Union. Outside Brussels proper, the farming lobby's power has been a factor determining EU agricultural policy since the earliest days of integration. The involvement of the Parliament, which represents the citizens, increases the democratic legitimacy of the CAP. The Parliament was involved in the process of change for the first time in 2013. Both the Council and the European Parliament have to agree to any changes. Changes to the CAP are proposed by the European Commission, after a public consultation, which then sends its proposals to the Council and to the European Parliament. The CAP has always been a difficult area of EU policy to reform it is a problem that began in the 1960s and one that has continued to the present, albeit less severely. The CAP is often explained as the result of a political compromise between France and Germany: German industry would have access to the French market in exchange, Germany would help pay for France's farmers.
