"Mr President, I voted for this report but with great reservations. Before I left for Strasbourg, I met Mr Rota, a pensioner who is also from Bergamo, in a restaurant. We talked about the Pensioners' Party and he asked me whether I was content with the European Parliament. I said: "It is such an enjoyable job! I am content, I feel at ease and I have some very good friends. Even the Vice-Presidents, such as Mr Provan, for example, are very diligent and I like them very much." He continued: "And is everything working alright in Europe? You don't find yourselves wasting European money every now and again?" "No", I replied, "everything is working fine." However, I am sad to say that I then read in this report that the national States have not applied Community legislation on collecting duties owed to the Community budget. I therefore hope that, in future, the collection of customs duties in Europe will work well too."@en1
