Mr President, we are going to vote on Mr Siekierski’s report. On behalf of all our fellow Members and, in particular, the members of the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs and the Committee on Agriculture and Rural Development, we would like to say that we are going to accept the two-year extension of the Food Distribution Programme for the Most Deprived Persons, on the basis of the agreement reached at the Council. Simply speaking, bearing in mind the political conditions under which this agreement was reached at the Council, we would like to obtain a statement from the Commission on its vision for the future of this programme.
