"Commissioner, I have a number of questions relating to the software patent directive, more specifically in connection with the position that the Council adopted yesterday. What does this position actually comprise? If it is the dry text of 18 May, then there will not be a majority to back it even in the Council, for, at the end of the day, eight states have announced or delivered statements with critical comments on the directive’s central points, and four national parliaments have expressed their opposition to its content. How, then, will you take account of the objections these states have raised? It can, of course, be done in this House, but the Council is, after all, responsible for getting the backing of a majority, and that is what the post-18 May text will not get in its present form. No attempt has as yet been made to take on board the Member States’ objections. I do not want a power struggle between Parliament, the Council and the Commission; what I want is the objections to this directive to be properly dealt with, and that is what I expect of you."@en1
