Kommissionen er i grunden enig med Parlamentet, men på vegne af kommissærkollegiet skal jeg her formelt fastslå Kommissionens forbehold over for formuleringer, der kunne indskrænke dens initiativret, som er knæsat i traktaten.
With regard to the fundamental issue at hand, the Commission is of the same opinion as Parliament, but, on behalf of the College of Commissioners, I would like to say for the record that the Commission has several reservations with regard to any wording that could interfere with its right of initiative, as set out in the Treaty.
