lpv:translated text	"Mr President, when a child is born with just a father, we must not be surprised if it grows up with problems. Europe has many fathers and we have just missed the opportunity to give it a mother. I would like to talk about the assessment in Laeken on the subject of the application of justice and home affairs policies. I agree with the progress made on the principle of mutual recognition of judicial decisions, both in the criminal field and in the civil field, though to a lesser extent. And I must congratulate you in this respect on the content and the form of the agreement on the European arrest warrant, which affects a large number of offences and which I see as greater justice rather than greater repression. I believe we should welcome this. However, with regard to immigration and asylum, I must say that the Council’s text adopts a tone of renunciation which worries me. The analysis of the situation is sincere of course, but I do not believe that it reaches the right conclusions. Mr President, we cannot allow fifteen different immigration policies in this borderless Europe for much longer. I think that we should draw other conclusions from this situation; the conclusion that these policies require greater impetus, that we should rid ourselves once and for all of the shackles of unanimity and that we should increase this Parliament’s participation in such sensitive issues. Mr President, I believe we have demonstrated that it is possible to work with our Parliament in this field and that we must put an end to the restrictions imposed in Amsterdam. I hope that the Convention takes note of this and puts it right. I would also like to end by congratulating the Presidency on the inclusion of diversity and the idea of federalism in the Treaty and on Mr Verhofstadt’s words to this House in this regard."@en1
