The issues raised in this report are complex and have far-reaching implications. At the heart of the matter is the sovereign power of Member States to nominate MEPs and to define how they are represented in the European Parliament within the context of the existing regulatory framework for elections to Parliament.
I do not wish to go into detail regarding a procedural and legal issue that rests exclusively with the Member State in question, but, according to the report before us, the Italian authorities have decided, on the basis of a decision by the Italian Council of State, to nominate a particular politician to the European Parliament whose credentials are called into question by this report.
We take the view that, given that all the criteria and conditions for the nomination of an MEP by a Member State have been met – at national and European Parliament level – the Member State in question should be allowed to proceed with the nomination, in compliance with the internal legal framework."@en1
