"For the ACP-EU Joint Parliamentary Assembly to properly carry out its role – mentioned by the rapporteur – in North-South cooperation and the strengthening of the parliamentary aspect of this cooperation, some of its fundamental characteristics need to be defended. The breadth of its representation is both its greatest asset and an essential requirement if it is to properly carry out its role. Therefore, any attempt to reduce this representativeness on the grounds of cost cutting must be rejected, while defending the assembly’s plural nature, without which some of its principles would be seriously distorted and some of its basic objectives seriously compromised. All the means needed to achieve the effective extended participation of all parliamentarians must be guaranteed, whether they represent the EU or, in particular, the African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) group of states. It is therefore with concern that we have repeatedly witnessed the failure to ensure the conditions necessary to achieve this participation, specifically with regard to interpretation services. Official languages of EU and ACP countries are frequently dropped, as has been the case with Portuguese on more than one occasion. This is a serious error, the correction of which is important."@en1
