"Mr President, I voted for this report, which regulates and comments on the granting of discharge to a number of European Union bodies, and I would like to explain why I voted for one specific heading: the heading on the budget set aside for the Committee of the Regions. Some people – and I will tell you who, the British conservatives in particular – are calling for the Committee of the Regions to be abolished. I do not support them. In my opinion, the regions in Europe should be more highly valued and their importance stressed and appreciated because I feel that the future of Europe is, on the one hand, Europe, and, on the other, the regions of Europe. The national States have to decide to take a step backwards. We cannot have everything: therefore, let us hear less of the national States, and more of the regions and more of Europe."@en1
