lpv:translated text	"Madam President, this is a serious problem, yet limited in terms of scope. At the end of the day, this is about a few priests who spent some time in Africa and who displayed behaviour which was naturally wholly inappropriate and which we do not endorse at all. However, we should not generalise. This was not the Holy See’s policy. Neither is this an urgent matter, because the incidents date back to 1994-1995. Now the Vatican too has taken measures and launched its own inquiry. Steps have since been taken against the priests in question and the relevant details have been disclosed. Accordingly, my group proposes not to include this topic in the urgent and topical debate. Needless to say, it is entirely logical in our view, and we would also appreciate it if we were to discuss this topic within the parliamentary committees, for that – and not the urgent and topical debate – is the appropriate forum."@en1
