". Madam President, I have a great deal of sympathy with the substance of the arguments put forward by the two previous speakers. It was really quite alarming to have to hear what a member of the Commission’s staff said to the Echelon Committee. Even if only a quarter of what he said is true, the situation is extremely problematical. I believe, however – and this is my group's view – that the Echelon Committee is there to examine these issues in detail and get to the heart of the matter. So I would also support the expansion of the Echelon Committee's competencies, if necessary, so that it is able to undertake a detailed examination of these issues, which have, after all, been referred to it – even if some have been withdrawn again – and then present its findings to Parliament. As a group, we feel that this would be a better way forward. The issues are serious, we take them very seriously, but after detailed examination by the Committee they should be presented here and dealt with by us."@en1
