"Mr President, at this late stage in voting time, it is exasperating to have to point out that the House is incapable of applying the decisions that it takes. We decided to make the Charter of Fundamental Rights the Alpha and the Omega of our work. Within the Committee on Constitutional Affairs, as custodian of the Rules of Procedure, I was obliged to table a number of linguistic amendments which should have been dealt with in an erratum. These linguistic amendments included a number which, in my view, are not strictly linguistic, since they relate to the Portuguese, Italian, French and Greek versions. They are seeking to replace the expression ‘human rights’ with the expression ‘rights of the individual’. To my great regret, in the erratum, this so-called linguistic amendment is not taken into account. I am aware that at the Conference of Presidents, you consulted the legal services to find out which expression the House should use. I hope that the House is capable of deciding by itself that the Charter should be applied in this Parliament."@en1
