Mr President, Mr Diamandouros, it is very nice to hear so much praise. I think it is deserved, Mr Diamandouros. I would just like to make two or three remarks regarding your work itself. It seems to me that since the number of complaints is now going down, it may be worth spending more time on developing the procedures themselves, the system of communication itself, the flow of information and public access to documents. It is also worth considering what is causing the decrease in the number of complaints: is it the result of a continued improvement in the performance of the EU institutions or is it, perhaps, that the public does not find the EU institutions responsive enough?
I voted for you, I endorsed you, and I think it was a very good choice. Let us think, however, what more can be done at the moment to create a better flow of information and better contact. We should not just be resolving complaints, we should be building a better system. I know you are already doing this, and this is important. My fellow Member from the European Conservatives and Reformists Group, Mr Migalski, said that his group is going to abstain from voting on your report because of your budget, because you have so many people and so on. I do think you should be given our support, but we should also expect action which would not only resolve individual cases but would establish certain more general principles."@en1
