"Madam President, the Committee on Petitions really does act as a transmission belt for the petitions, complaints and problems referred by citizens, taxpayers and voters in the EU Member States to the European Union as such. It genuinely plays a crucial role. I would remind you of its work during the last term, when it handled such important political issues as the Nord Stream gas pipeline and the withdrawal of licences from Catholic radio stations in Spain, matters that were followed up, as well as issues affecting the lives of ordinary citizens, such as additional taxation on vehicles imported into Poland. Last year, the number of petitions submitted to the committee increased, which is a good sign. I hope that it will continue its work with regard to the German Child and Youth Welfare Office (Jugendamt), an authority that sadly very often reaches controversial decisions concerning the children of mixed-nationality couples, whether Polish-German, Franco-German or Italian-German."@en1
