"Mr President, thank you for giving the floor to this very fleeting Member of Parliament. I joined the House on 19 April and I will leave on 19 July, with two months of interruption. In other words, I will have been a Member for just one month, but, over this month, I entered a Parliament with 623 Members and 15 countries and I will leave a Parliament with more than 700 Members and 25 countries. What a change I have brought to these institutions!
Over the last eight years, however, I have also been working in connection with the institutions and particularly in the world of communication. I have had meetings with several Commissioners, first with Commissioner Marcelino Oreja, then with Mrs Viviane Reding and recently with Commissioner Vitorino.
It is communication that I would like to talk about now and my question to President Prodi will focus on it. Communication is very important and I believe that the European institutions must have a genuine communication policy. Not a propaganda policy, but a communication policy.
I would like to ask President Prodi whether he believes that the last method he used, taking the communication of the Committee on Culture, Youth, Education, the Media and Sport and giving it directly to the Presidency, is the most appropriate, and whether he believes that now, with a much expanded College of Commissioners, the communication policy – always in accordance with the guidelines established by the European Parliament – should be led by the Commission in a more direct fashion, with a view to creating a genuine European spirit."@en1
