lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I have listened most attentively to your message about the Irish ‘no’ vote. I fully endorse your statement on the need to continue the ratification process. It is indeed perplexing that the Irish ‘no’ comes at a time when the EU is increasingly democratic, transparent and effective. However, Mr President, we need to decode the message from the factors supporting the ‘no’ vote. Irish citizens have made their decision and exercised their democratic right; however, this ‘no’ also calls on us to engage in some constructive self-criticism. I suggest focusing this self-criticism on two points: we are bombarded, Mr President, by the Commission’s over-regulation; we, the European Parliament, cannot concern ourselves with every detail of this legal technicality and over-regulation. Mr President, I know your dedication to European affairs, and I call on the European Parliament to rise to the occasion as a political body, a a rallying point for the declared directions of the course of European unification."@en1
