lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, it is not my intention to delay the House any longer than we have to. I do not want to get into the argument about the amendments because that can be sorted out by a vote. One point should be made, however; the process is not ideal. Mrs Doyle and other Members are right but the problem we are faced with in the Regional and Transport Committee, which is the committee responsible, is that at the very last minute we were asked for urgency by the Council because somebody, somewhere, realised that we needed a resolution from this House to carry on the particular fund in question. Therefore, the only way we could do that was by this very quick procedure, through the committee on Tuesday, by a letter from the President. We thought we had an understanding that there would not be any amendments. Sadly, that has not been the case. It is only fair to point out that given the time we had to do this, the committee and the Parliament have worked as effectively and as quickly as we possibly can in what proved to be difficult circumstances so that the money could be released next year for this very important fund."@en1
