lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I would like to thank Mr Corbett and Lord Inglewood – whose work has not passed completely unnoticed – for the time and effort they have put into what is certainly not a straightforward report, a report which is based on the question of whether the quality of our work as Members of the European Parliament needs to be improved, whether we need more transparent and effective procedures and whether we need to organise our work according to specific rhythms and requirements. I feel that this evening’s debate confirms the need for us to change the way we work in the European Parliament. A full spectrum of positions have been expressed on Mr Corbett’s report, from opposition to support, veiled criticism and open criticism. This evening’s debate confirms this. Our political family – and this is the first time I have been in this situation – is going to hold a last, lengthy debate tomorrow to decide our final position on the voting list. I would, however, like to focus on the method. The Rules of Procedure are a secondary rather than a primary point of reference. Therefore, we are currently witnessing a period of great change in our institutional architecture. We have two years to decide whether we have made the right changes to our Rules of Procedure or whether further changes need to be made. At the end of the Convention’s work, we will certainly have to compare our work on the Rules of Procedure with the decisions taken on the legislative procedures. We must therefore have confidence, above all in ourselves, and decide to experiment with new ways of doing things. In conclusion, I have to say that, apart from the issue of topical and urgent debates, I do feel that there are problems, and the Corbett report certainly proposes a number of solutions."@en1
