". The sense of responsibility, respect and high intellectual rigour expected of the MEPs’ mandate has never hindered their ability to express their views openly; far from it. While there have been a number of well-documented, unacceptable abuses, it is also true that some countries have developed certain practices and customs that actually enhance the prestige of their parliamentary assemblies and lend them their own particular character and flavour. Take the United Kingdom, for example. I feel that, quite apart from the provisions of the regulations in force, rules and behaviour are primarily dictated by precedent, which, by definition, is very much a work in progress in the case of the European Parliament. The mandate of MEP is the exercise of both freedom and responsibility, and there is no reason to believe that the elected representatives are lacking either of these."@en1
