"Madam President, I am delighted with Mr Cox’s proposal and I think that it is also a viable compromise. I regret that the Group of the European People’s Party (Christian Democrats) and European Democrats have quoted Rule 115, because the last version of the text, which was the French one, was actually issued at 1.02 a.m. It is now 23.5 hours later. Maybe they need this last half hour to prepare for their debate, but it does seem that they seized on this as a rather lame excuse. However, I am in favour of the compromise of starting this debate at 3.00 p.m., and I also hope that we will be able to finish it this afternoon. I would like to point out once more that it is indeed extremely important to finish it during this sitting because, otherwise, we will lose all authority which we can still exercise in the Social Affairs Council, to be held on 5 and 6 June and, in that way, the report’s significance will be seriously undermined."@en1
