"I abstained from voting on the joint motion for a resolution on the accession of Bulgaria and Romania because I am unclear as to the point of adopting a position on the matter at this stage.
I personally should have preferred it if, before expressing an opinion, the European Parliament had waited for the follow-up report to be presented by the Commission at the beginning of October of this year.
If, by any chance, the Commission then appeared to express serious reservations about whether 1 January 2007 was the right time for one or other of these countries to join the EU, I really would not see the point of the motion for a resolution voted on today. Parliament’s going religiously through the motions is not, in my view, evidence of good democratic health."@en1
