lpv:translated text	"I would not have asked for the floor if Mrs Stenzel had not attacked our group in such an unbecoming way, and one that is so extremely unworthy of a Member of this House. There are two things I would like to say to her. Where abortion is concerned, and in this debate, we respect the right of every Member to reach a decision in accordance with his or her conscience. Rarely in parliamentary debate is that necessary, and rarely do political groups have to allow their members the freedom to decide in accordance with their conscience. There are few such issues, but this is one of them. Mrs Stenzel will not find it difficult, if she looks at the result of the vote, to see that the report would have been lost if our group had voted against it. A ‘no’ from our group would have been enough to throw the report out. There were certain key points in the report with which we did not agree, but we were quite satisfied with others. It was because we wanted to help this report gain a majority, while also wanting our scepticism to be visible, that we abstained. If she thinks that is bad form, then perhaps she should consider whether she is perhaps judging by the wrong criteria."@en1
