"I have, on 23 October 2003, voted in favour of the budget at the European Parliament’s first reading and in favour of Mrs Gill’s report (). In that connection, I have supported the European Parliament’s purchasing the buildings in Strasbourg and Luxembourg, because this would in the longer term reduce the costs in connection with the ‘dual domicile’ and so save the European taxpayers’ money in the form of taxes.
I should like to emphasise that I am still opposed to the European Parliament’s having two bases and that I am of the view that a purchase of the buildings would not affect the decision to allow the European Parliament to work and vote in the one place. That decision must be taken by the Heads of State and Government, whereupon it will, moreover, be possible for the buildings to be sold at a favourable price."@en1
