Hr. formand, mine damer og herrer, min kollega Viviane Reding har ikke mulighed for at deltage i denne forhandling, da hun deltager i et møde i Bruxelles i Rådet (kultur). Hun har bedt mig rette en tak til hr. Vander Taelen for den glimrende betænkning.
Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, my colleague, Viviane Reding, was unable to join us for this debate because she is in Brussels at the Council meeting of sports ministers, but she asked me to pass on her thanks to Mr Vander Taelen for his excellent report.
