lpv:translated text	"Madam President, the Commissioner made his statement in a rather solemn fashion, as if we were witnessing an historic moment, and I think it is one. Today’s decision by the Commission is, of course, historic. It is about the image that the European Union creates and that image will not change unless reality changes, which I believe also to be the case. He claims that ‘it is an appetiser’, but we would be wrong to think that this is merely cosmetic. I think that the Commission’s proposals do have teeth. It is quite extraordinary – with all due respect to the Commissioner – for bureaucracy to come up with proposals for less bureaucracy. So turkeys may be able to vote for Christmas after all. The Commissioner is right to give Parliament and the Council some of the responsibility, since it is from this House and the Council that much of the small print in legislation originates. I think that Mrs Grossetête was also right when she made reference to this: ‘How can we prevent this process from continuing?’ We have our own responsibility that we should take quite seriously. Finally, since you have a website where citizens are invited to add their comments, could you give us an idea, in a nutshell and on a regular basis, of the feedback you get from this?"@en1
