"Mr President, I do indeed wish to take the floor on a point of order, specifically to invoke the Rules of Procedure. We were surprised yesterday to be presented with a new and very lengthy set of amendments. These were tabled as compromise amendments, but they are not in fact compromise amendments, since no compromise was reached on any of the amendments tabled in Parliament. They represent a whole new approach, which we know to be the clear result of the last Council meeting.
When there are more than 50 amendments, Rule 130a of our Rules of Procedure gives the President the right to request that the committee meet to consider the matter. We believe, then, that this would be the correct procedure if we are to operate democratically and openly. Given the number of amendments tabled, we should discuss the matter again in committee. We could then vote on the report during the July part-session. We cannot understand why we are due to work under the conditions anticipated for this evening and tomorrow. They are difficult for us to accept."@en1
