". – Mr President, in reply to those last remarks, I wish to say three things: firstly, of course it is the privilege – in fact the duty – of Parliament to say what it feels. On the other hand, I have the feeling that the Commission will be failing in its job if it did not give just as honest an opinion as Parliament in reply. Secondly, this whole matter will be discussed at a Telecom Council next Friday. The Commission will put forward the same opinion and therefore the Council will act on the Commission's proposal as it sees fit. Thirdly and lastly, if Heads of State or Government decided in Lisbon that the European Union should be the most competitive place in the world in ten years' time, then we have to act upon that. If Members of this Parliament are of the opinion that whatever Heads of State or Government say is of no concern to them, that is not an attitude that I share. I take the conclusions expressed by the Heads of State or Government as being the guidelines for the Commission and I have spoken this morning in the spirit of those conclusions. I call upon Members of this Parliament to follow the Commission's proposal, because only that proposal leads to the aim of Lisbon, which is to have the most competitive, dynamic, knowledge-based economy in the world in ten years' time."@en1
