Madam Commissioner , ladies and gentlemen , I realise that there is a bit of a hubbub because a lot of colleagues are entering the chamber , but I would ask those entering not to stand chatting because many colleagues are keen to hear the Commissioner's conclusions. - Mr President , I should like to thank the honourable Members for all their very interesting contributions
Frau Kommissarin , sehr geehrte Abgeordnete. Es herrscht gerade ziemliche Unruhe , weil einige Kollegen den Saal betreten
First of all , I should like to say that I naturally very much appreciate your excellent chairing of the sitting , as well as your accommodating stance. However , my remarks are intended to draw attention to the fact that a number of my colleagues left the Chamber a good deal earlier than during the general hubbub that took place a few minutes ago. We have had a rather trying morning
Zunächst einmal möchte ich betonen , daß ich Ihren außerordentlich guten Vorsitz natürlich ebenso zu würdigen weiß wie dieses Entgegenkommen. Einige meiner Kollegen haben aber den Saal im allgemeinen Tumult bereits wesentlich früher als erst vor einigen Minuten verlassen. Aus diesem Grunde wollte ich diese Anmerkung machen
On behalf of the sittings service , I apologise for the hubbub over which you had to speak.This morning's debate on the cultural package is closed. Culture being about listening to one another , I assure you that at times we are not always very polite.The vote will take place at 12 noon. That is why I agree with the rapporteur that use should be made of the cultural contribution of the Structural Funds , especially now with the mid - term evaluation of the 2000 - 2006 programming period , so that we can take additional or corrective measures , such as promoting vocational training and , of course , promoting education at higher learning level , because in many countries , such as my own , Greece , it is inadequate
Im Namen des Sitzungsdienstes entschuldige ich mich für den Lärm , der während Ihrer Ausführungen herrschte.Die Aussprache zum Themenkomplex Kultur des heutigen Vormittags ist geschlossen. Wenn man bedenkt , dass Kultur bedeutet , dem Anderen zuzuhören , muss ich Ihnen sagen , dass wir uns mitunter nicht ganz korrekt verhalten.Die Abstimmung findet um 12.00 Uhr statt
