lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I shall be brief as I have almost exhausted my time limits. I would like to thank again all the rapporteurs and all the speakers because the discussion was very interesting and of substance. This is very helpful and gives us a very positive sign for the future. I think that this is a positive moment in the cooperation between the Commission and Parliament. This is the way I would like to see it and I hope that you are going to vote tomorrow for a good reform, a good radical and conclusive reform. This is what we really want. I do not want to comment on your opinions, but, because I think it is fair, just to comment on the spirit that I have witnessed in some interventions. This is not a power game of the Commission against Parliament or anybody else here. This is not a power game. We need your cooperation. I am here to cooperate with you in the reform. So, please, it is unfair to say, for example, referring to the Gallagher report – I already congratulated Mr Gallagher on his excellent job and also the rapporteurs and the shadow rapporteurs – that this will be the end of the Commission doing nothing and so on. After all, this is a report on our proposal. The Commission services have worked a lot in some months to reach this proposal for this instrument, so it is unfair to say that the Commission failed to answer this question and that Parliament will now have to respond. Everybody would like to cooperate here. At least, I would like to cooperate with all of you, and I very much welcome your ideas and your proposals. I understand all about the theoretical ideas, that the Commission and European Union are against fisheries and against fishermen, that we are trying to implement neoliberal ideas, etc., but here are some concrete questions and I think that all Members have to give concrete answers. Do we want to have the date of the catch? Do we want to have it on the fish products? Yes or no? I would like clear answers on this because otherwise, when I then go to discuss this with small-scale fisheries and small-scale fishermen everywhere, I will have to say that the Commission tried to protect their interests but the European Parliament declined to do so. So, after all, this House also has some responsibility."@en1
