".
Mr President, the old Vienna Agency has had something of a chequered career. I myself was involved in one example where a very important report on anti
Semitism seemed either to have been suppressed or improperly handled by that Agency, and it was my view then that far too much politics had been allowed to enter into the activities of the Agency in respect of that matter.
Therefore, I would like to have clear assurances, with regard to the new arrangements, that first of all the new Agency with these wider and different roles will be objective, that it will behave in a sensitive manner and not allow any politics to enter into its work. On top of that I would also want assurances that it will be properly accountable through parliamentary control. What disappoints me is that quite often we say this is intended, but in practice it does not occur. So this time we must insist on these provisions and insist on these matters being secured.
The only other matter I would like to raise is the issue of the need for a separate gender institute. I believe that it is totally unnecessary: we always have to careful about bureaucracy. I am very satisfied that this Agency will do its work in such an objective manner that it will be able to cope with the extra burdens that will be put upon it by dealing with the issues that would otherwise be dealt with by a separate institute.
I congratulate Mrs Gál on her report and I certainly believe that with the kind of assurances that I am asking for it will have a successful start and a successful period of operation."@en1
