"Mr President, I would like to underline that no one in Parliament will agree with every single item and every single paragraph of this important report. That is clear. The overall message that we are giving to the IGC is that this Parliament wants the IGC to be ambitious, to think long term and not short term and to address all the issues that need to be addressed if a Union of nearly 30 Member States is to be able to function effectively.
We have put a large number of suggestions on the table. Clearly, not all of them will be taken up in the form which this Parliament has advocated. But we know that. We think it is right that the IGC should look at these issues, look at them seriously and come up with appropriate solutions that will enable the Union to work.
My Group, as you know and as Barón Crespo has just said, has some reservations on particular points. They relate, in particular, to the composition of this Parliament, where unfortunately attempts to reach a compromise position fell down at the last minute. We must come back to this issue and put forward a proper proposal on a matter which is of direct concern to this House. I am confident that we can do that. We were very near to a compromise agreement. We should be able to crack this one.
We are happy to vote for the report, given the circumstances, and with the reservations I have just described."@en1
