lpv:translated text	"Mr President, it seems that this time we are genuinely making progress and we are going to take an important step in solving one of the most flagrant anomalies that characterise the functioning of this House, by achieving something as simple as each and every Member being subject to the same system. It goes without saying that the text proposed by the rapporteur, Mr Rothley, whom I congratulate most sincerely, is a balanced text and naturally we are going to give it our full support. This fact, however, does not prevent me from making a few comments. In my country we say that military justice is to justice in general what military music is to music. There are times when I think that this Parliament is to a parliament what military music is to music. Tell me, ladies and gentlemen, if in any parliament of any Member State you are subject to the rules to which we are subject in this Parliament or whether it would be acceptable for any parliament to be subject to the degree of control and monitoring – for example in areas as important as drawing up its own rules – to which we are subject with the intervention of the Council. This, therefore, is not acceptable. I understand that there is cause for debate here, such as the subject of tax, and I believe we could debate this within this House. What I would like, however, is for the result of this debate to be the final decision, rather than, regardless of what we decide here, always having to be subject to the will of a body, the Council, which, ultimately, is only partially legislative, and to the will of the governments of the Member States."@en1
