European Parliament
Edward McMillan-Scott (PPE-DE ). –
Mr President, Mr Rocard’s excellent speech reminded me that in my earlier speech I failed to acknowledge his role as chief observer of the Commission delegation last January. At present, Mrs De Keyser, from this House, is chairing the Commission’s observer mission in Palestine. I should like to acknowledge that duty.
I apologise in advance for having to leave early: I think I have caught a Strasbourg cold. I therefore thank the Commissioner in advance for her reply to my questions.
