Je remercie M. Mandelson pour ses commentaires et je voudrais souligner que dans un esprit de coopération et de consensus, je viens de m’entretenir avec M. Varela Suanzes-Carpegna et que j’ai accepté de retirer l’amendement 11 − nous en parlerons demain − en échange de son soutien aux nouvelles parties de mon amendement 12.
I thank Mr Mandelson for his comments and I would make the point that in a spirit of cooperation and consensus I have just had a conversation with Mr Varela Suanzes-Carpegna and I have agreed to withdraw Amendment 11 − we will deal with this tomorrow − in exchange for him supporting, as an addition, the new parts of my Amendment 12.
