". − I voted in favour of this report as it seeks to review the European Parliament’s Rules of Procedure. The current issue is whether negotiating mandates should be included in decision-making procedures. One could argue that approval of the committee’s negotiating mandate by the plenary would give more weight to Parliament’s position and could in theory ensure the early involvement of all Members in decisions concerning legislative files. Thus a general rule to submit all draft decisions containing negotiating mandates to a debate at and approval by plenary could at a first glance find its justification in improved democratic legitimacy. However, the disadvantages would also be considerable. A full and automatic involvement would risk making the procedure too heavy and would thus counteract the efficiency and relative speed inherent to first reading agreements. It is also to be borne in mind that this solution would create increased workload for the EP’s linguistic staff. Therefore, the procedures created should be not only flexible and pragmatic, but also assorted according to the political importance of legislative files."@en1
