European Parliament
Maat (PPE-DE ),
rapporteur
(NL)
Mr President, Mr Evans' argument does not hold good. This morning, we already voted on two other reports – four, in fact – which were also discussed this morning. In that respect, the debate is finished. There was, however, a chance that we had to vote on my report tomorrow, Wednesday, had the debate not been concluded.
As it happens, the debate is finished, all nominal lists were available last night, and there is no problem at all about the order of the amendments, because given the contributions of the various groups, I cannot imagine that the voting list would look any different. I cannot therefore see any formal, or other, argument to postpone the vote.
(Applause)
