What about whereabouts?

Having considered WADA's 'whereabouts rule', the European Union has decided that it breaches the right to privacy of athletes and is thus in conflict with the EU's fundamental principles. Interesting, but potentially challenging for the Union. If the Lisbon Treaty is ratified, thereby leading to the establishment of the specificity of sport, the EU may well have the opportunity to support the 'whereabouts' code as sport would be exempt from laws and regulations applied in other industrial sectors. Is the choice this stark? Is it a case of privacy versus 'whereabouts'? Or would specificity provide a way out of the current contradiction? Is the EU's desire to uphold the principle of privacy so strong that it won't even use the Lisbon Treaty and/or specificity as one way of addressing drugs problems? In which case, does the EU have other plans in mind for controlling drug taking in sport? And what does the rejection of a global sport organisation's regulations by an international governmental organisation tell us about the way forward in drug control, and indeed sport generally?
