"Mr President, first of all, I should like to express my condolences to Mr Juncker on account of the death of Grand Duchess Josephine-Charlotte. I wish you and the Luxembourg people strength to bear this loss, and may God be close to you.
The Luxembourg Presidency is facing the weighty task of reforming the Stability Pact and implementing the conclusions of Wim Kok’s report. The Commission’s proposal to give due consideration to the economic climate in the Stability Pact offers, in my view, a basis for carrying out adequate reforms. The implementation of the Pact benefits from clear decision-making. Clear sanctions are still needed. It was in the autumn of 2004 that Mr Kok presented his report on the Lisbon strategy; his conclusion is as clear as it is predictable: the Member States must really get down to carrying out structural reforms. I would therefore like to ask Mr Juncker in what way we can expect your presidency to follow that up. Since Luxembourg has always been a great champion of necessary reforms, I have high hopes.
Finally, with regard to the Members’ statute, can Parliament expect from the presidency that a decision will finally be made on this subject in the next six months?"@en1
