lpv:translated text	". Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, I should first like to welcome the President-in-Office of the Council, the Prime Minister of the Netherlands, Jan Peter Balkenende. Ladies and gentlemen, three weeks ago, I suggested that we stop the clock. The time has now come for us to set it in motion again and to submit my team for this House’s approval. The decision to postpone the vote was widely welcomed, both inside and outside Parliament, as a means of laying the foundations for this process to come to a positive conclusion. This is a process that shows European democracy in action. Tomorrow Parliament has the chance to give the incoming Commission a ringing endorsement and, in so doing, has the chance to deliver yet another victory for European democracy. It is in your hands to approve the Commission, and I shall strive, as I clearly indicated in July, when I received the honour of your support as President-designate, to ensure that this Commission will enjoy a close relationship – or positive complicity, as I like to call it – with Parliament. This is a Commission that, with your support and partnership, can drive forward a European agenda that can make Europe matter to its citizens."@en1
