Jeg erindrer om, at Europa-Parlamentet under sessionen i marts 2001 vedtog Carraro-betænkningen. Denne understreger vigtigheden af EU's og medlemsstaternes repræsentation i ICANN (en privat nonprofitorganisation, som forvalter forskellige nøglesektorer i internetadministrationen) og påpeger behovet for at sikre udviklingslandene adgang til dette system.
In this context, I would point out that our Parliament voted, in the part-session of March 2001, for the Carraro report, which focused on the place that the Member States and the European Union should occupy within ICANN [the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers] - a private, non-profit company that has produced several key Internet systems - and which recommends opening up this system to developing countries.
