Jeg tror, at det princip om degressiv proportionalitet, der slås til lyd for i betænkningen, er det mest brugbare og også det mest retfærdige udgangspunkt, hvis man mener, at i hvert fald de mindre medlemsstater og deres repræsentanter her i Parlamentet skal være i stand til fortsat at spille en meningsfuld rolle.
I think that the principle of degressive proportionality advocated by this report is the most workable and also the fairest starting point if one believes at least that the smaller Member States and their representatives in this Parliament must be able to go on playing a meaningful role.
