Mr President, I rise to register my opposition to the amendments of my own Group with whom I am out of step, and to similar amendments, which seek to eliminate the Friday sittings in Strasbourg or to break up one of the weeks of the part-session into two distinct part-sessions in order to artificially increase the number of part-sessions in Strasbourg and even to the amendments by Mr Pannella and company, seeking to remove Mondays and Fridays from the Strasbourg part-session or to extend the additional part-sessions by two to three or even five days.
Hr. formand, jeg tager ordet for at tale imod min egen gruppes ændringsforslag og ændringsforslag af samme tilsnit, der stiler mod at afskaffe fredagen i Strasbourg-mødeperioden eller mod at opdele den ene eller den anden mødeperiode i to adskilte mødeperioder for kunstigt at øge antallet af mødeperioder i Strasbourg, samt for at tale imod ændringsforslag fra hr. Pannella og konsorter, der forsøger at afskaffe mandag og fredag i Strasbourg-mødeperioden eller at forlænge de ekstra mødeperioder fra to til tre, ja endda til fem dage.
