Up until now, I feel I can say that she has been a fairy godmother: two weeks ago, she announced that the Commission had programmed a special undertaking to resolve the problems of pensioners by extending the directive on pension funds and via the proposal to regulate these European pension funds in such a way that they are used to benefit workers who have hitherto paid a large part of their salary to the State, to the different States, and who would have liked - and this is what I propose - their funds to be properly managed, just as, I am sure, Mrs Diamantopoulou manages the finances of her own family and as every bank, every British bank, in particular - and on this point I agree with Mr Bushill-Matthews - has done thus far.
Hidtil synes jeg nok, jeg kan sige, at hun er Snehvide, bl.a. fordi jeg har set, at hun for to uger siden har tilkendegivet, at Kommissionen vil gøre en særlig indsats for at løse pensionisternes problemer gennem en udvidelse af direktivet om pensionsfonde og har til hensigt at regulere de europæiske pensionsfonde, så de bliver brugt til gavn for de arbejdstagere, som indtil nu har indbetalt en stor del af deres løn til staten - til de forskellige stater - og som gerne vil have - og det er netop, hvad jeg foreslår - at de bliver forvaltet godt, ligesom jeg er sikker på, at fru Diamantopoulou forvalter sin egen families midler, og som også alle banker, især alle engelske banker, hidtil har gjort. Jeg er i den henseende enig i, hvad hr. Bushill-Matthews sagde.
