"Madam President, I still have a few additional questions. Commissioner, although I am grateful for your openness and for the candour with which you have spoken, I still wonder what the compelling circumstances are for you to table this proposal in the dying days of your career as a Commissioner, when your mandate has only six weeks left to run? You have told Mr El Khadraoui that you have consulted all those involved and refer in this respect to your visit to the Antwerp port. I live in Antwerp and if you ask me, the last time you visited the Antwerp port was when the debate about the previous directive, which was rejected by this Parliament, was in full swing. I therefore see no signs of consultation about the new text. Like Mr El Khadraoui, I would emphatically ask you what your timeframe is. You have failed to give a response to this question so far. Finally, Commissioner, surely you must realise that what you stated a moment ago with regard to the statute of the Belgian and Flemish dockworkers is nothing short of a declaration of war, and that you will certainly not solve the issue with this kind of approach."@en1
