In view of Mr Gargani's position, not only as a politician, but as Chairman of Parliament's Committee on Legal Affairs, which is responsible for privileges and immunities of members (by virtue of Annex VI, Section XVI, point 9 of the Rules of Procedure), he has a legitimate interest in expressing his opinion on the situation appertaining to parliamentary immunity in Italy.
Compte tenu de sa position, non seulement en tant qu'homme politique, mais aussi comme président de la commission des affaires juridiques du Parlement, laquelle est responsable des privilèges et immunités des députés (en vertu de l'annexe VI, section XVI, point 9 du règlement), M. Gargani a un intérêt légitime à exprimer son avis sur la situation concernant l'immunité parlementaire en Italie.

It is thus indisputable that Mr Musotto was interviewed in his capacity as a Member of Parliament. He also gave his answers in that capacity, and it seems to me that any result which threatened to waive his immunity, or which threatened not to uphold his immunity, would go against the spirit, if not the letter, of the law. That is the unanimous opinion reached by the Committee on Legal Affairs in the course of lengthy debates.
C’est donc indiscutablement en qualité de parlementaire qu’il a été interrogé et qu’il a répondu et toute solution qui viserait à ne pas lui accorder le bénéfice de l’immunité ou à ne pas défendre son immunité serait, me semble-t-il, contraire sinon à la lettre, en tout cas à l’esprit du texte. C’est l’avis unanime qu’a formé, après de longs débats, la commission juridique.

As his representative, I contacted the Secretary General of the Court of Auditors, not to express an opinion on the correctness or incorrectness of the points which Mr Watt had raised, but simply to draw to the attention of the Court that in my opinion, Mr Watt was, whether correct or incorrect, a public-spirited person acting for what he understood to be the public interest.
Étant son représentant, j’ai contacté le Secrétaire général de la Cour des comptes, non pas pour exprimer mon opinion sur l’exactitude ou l’inexactitude des questions que M. Watt a soulevées, mais simplement pour attirer l’attention de la Cour sur le fait qu’à mon avis, M. Watt était, qu’il ait eu tort ou raison, une personne faisant preuve de civisme et ayant agi pour ce qu’il estimait être dans l’intérêt général.
