"Mr President, as you see, people are starting to copy Mr Fatuzzo’s explanations of vote. I am pleased that they are following my example because they are calling for the European Parliament to have a single seat: not a seat in Brussels, one in Strasbourg and one in Luxembourg but a single seat. I support that demand, Mr President, and I put this question to you: what costs more, the few minutes Mr Fatuzzo spends delivering explanations of vote or having three seats for the European Parliament
with three buildings, and three offices for each Member and each employee. If we succeed in having a single seat for the European Parliament, I would be willing to stop delivering explanations of vote in celebration of the major saving made. That is where the saving needs to be made, not on Mr Fatuzzo’s minute-long speeches."@en1
