"Madam President, I think that there is no way that we can proceed to a vote on this amendment as it has not been re-introduced after being subject to a vote or, I might say, a transformation within the Committee on Budgets. Thus we have an amendment from the Committee on Budgets which, I must say, was voted on in a state of some confusion, and which represents a hybrid entity since it has the European Women's Lobby’s title and the content of Mrs Scallon’s amendment. Well, it will not have escaped you that in some respects the positions of the European Women’s Lobby and Mrs Scallon are not identical, but this is the amendment which the Committee on Budgets has voted on. I can understand people voting against it. I am supposed to be supporting it, but I find it somewhat incoherent. If Parliament votes against it, then we will then have to vote for or against the amendment of the European Women’s Lobby. Procedure does not allow for Mrs Scallon’s amendment to be reintroduced into the cycle since there is no compromise basis for an oral amendment to be submitted. I simply think that the problems that have arisen on this occasion will certainly be examined by the Committee on Budgets, within the working party specifically set up by chairman Wynn to deal with the subject of this institution’s policy on subsidies as a whole. I wish to reassure my fellow Member on that point, but, in my opinion, we can vote only on the two amendments which have been submitted: the Committee on Budgets’ amendment and the amendment reintroduced by the Committee on Women’s Rights and Equal Opportunities."@en1
