I voted for the Ponga report, which seeks to change the status of the island of Saint-Barthélemy from that of an outermost region to that of an overseas country and territory. This change in status has already been passed unanimously by the European Council and will benefit this territory by enabling it to consolidate its relations with the African, Caribbean and Pacific group of states and outermost regions in the Caribbean.
