lpv:translated text	". Mrs McNally, as you know, the European Group on Ethics was set up some years ago now. It was chaired by Mrs Lenoir and acquired, I believe, a certain reputation, a reputation as a result of its opinions. These are moderate opinions, which are generally accepted and are, of course, communicated to Parliament. I believe that you had invited Mrs Lenoir to come before the House. I now understand that Mrs Lenoir has resigned from her position as chair for personal reasons, meaning that the European Group on Ethics, whose members had recently been appointed, will have to elect a new president, most likely in the next few months. Whatever happens, the Commission President, Mr Prodi, is following events closely. I believe that, up to now, the ethics group issued opinions – which were, of course, only opinions – and these were prepared in a pluralist manner. In other words, scientists, lawyers and sociologists all contributed – and it is important that this is the case for contributions to an open debate on these issues, which are, of course, fundamental but also delicate. The European Group on Ethics has so far produced some extremely valuable work and I hope that it will continue to do so in the future."@en1
