"Mrs Berès, I shall make some comments in respect of the point of order you raised, but first I turn to our colleague Mr Méndez de Vigo. I thank him for the leadership he has shown on behalf of the European Parliament through the work of the Convention and as our representative on the IGC. We deeply appreciate that work.
Second, Mr Méndez de Vigo recently tendered his resignation as Parliament's representative on the IGC. I was informed of that and I believe I did my duty correctly. I took that information to the Conference of Presidents. There, we exchanged views on what the response should be, and the Conference of Presidents – with an accord short of unanimity but nonetheless an accord – decided to appoint Mr Brok as Parliament's representative.
This was done transparently, in accordance with the procedures. Views not far removed from those you raised in your point of order, Mrs Berès, were expressed; there was a plurality of views at that Conference, and a plurality of positions as regards the different group leaders. Nonetheless, there was sufficient momentum to confirm the appointment of our colleague, Mr Brok, to that position on behalf of Parliament. I underline 'on behalf of Parliament'."@en1
