"I chose to vote in favour of Amendments Nos 13 to 17 and, in that way, went against the line taken by the Group of the European People’s Party (Christian Democrats) and European Democrats. The reason for this is that these amendments are keenly critical of the serious irregularities at Eurostat. I also voted in favour of Amendment No 21 which regrets the fact that Commissioner Solbes Mira, the Commissioner directly responsible for Eurostat’s administration, did not act sooner in response to the unsatisfactory state of affairs and that he did not accept political responsibility. I also supported Amendment No 1, expressing the view that the accountability of the Commission would be strengthened in the future if the Commissioners accepted that they had individual political responsibility for their departments. The report as such was constructive, however, and I therefore voted for it in the final vote. The report was adopted by 467 votes in favour, with 11 votes against and 9 abstentions."@en1
