lpv:translated text	"I welcome the report from my colleague Evelyne Gebhardt on the choice of jurisdiction, the recognition of judgments and the rules applying to the right to decide on matrimonial matters. I firmly believe that it is important to create a clear, comprehensive and flexible legal framework in this sensitive area. In the vote today I voted in favour of the introduction of the right to choose an appropriate court for divorce proceedings. I supported a proposal under which a so-called international couple will be able to opt for jurisdiction in the place of their usual residence, or in the legal system of the country where they were married. I fully support the view that it is important to ensure sufficient access to information for both spouses, regardless of their financial situation or level of education. Both sides should be precisely and fully informed of the consequences of their choice of court and of the right to decide in divorce cases. This applies especially in the case of international couples, since the laws of the Member States, the divorce procedures and the conditions under which divorces may be handled vary enormously."@en1
