lpv:translated text	"Mr President, the joint debate of these three reports is an important debate. We need to convince people that the work of the Ombudsman is not just important, it is crucial to the proper integration of the European Union. Unfortunately, a great many of our fellow Members still do not know this. Luckily, these duties are being carried out by the experienced Mr Söderman, with his usual degree of enthusiasm for the job. I drafted the report on the application of Community law and saw the huge problems caused by the poor application of Community law at first hand. This is not just a legal problem, it is also a social problem, because the society of European citizens malfunctions as a result, and it is a political problem, because it reflects how mature we are about the type of European legal order we want. At the same time, I saw the huge role played by the Ombudsman in ensuring that this legal order operates smoothly in the Community. I need only remind you that most infringements of Community law are only discovered as the result of the complaints system. The second point I want to make in connection with the regulatory role of the Ombudsman is that the right of complaint and petition is tending to develop into a conciliation procedure for resolving differences amicably, which is the only way of settling differences flexibly and cheaply and freeing up the Court of the European Communities. However, first of all we must do everything humanly possible to find a way of cutting down the time taken to complete the procedure. I should like to close by pointing out that we need a generally applicable code of conduct on general principles and that individual organisations should only have their own code of conduct on matters which relate specifically to them."@en1
