lpv:spoken text	". Mr President, so far we have found agreement on almost all of the package and have demonstrated that codecision is working, with thanks to the hard work of the Hungarian Presidency and of course to András Kármán in particular, and to the Parliament negotiating team and the Commission. The Presidency and Commission have already highlighted numerous – I think it was 50 – Parliament additions. These include a legal framework for the Semester and surveillance of national reform programmes, independence of national statistical offices and fines for fraud, Commission surveillance missions, an economic dialogue between all stakeholders, and substantially greater transparency throughout. We cannot conceal, though, that there have been significant differences in the negotiation of the package. For my part, I do not see this as political grandstanding but rather the search for ownership, to enable ownership by the people. What divides us in Parliament differs from our issues with the Council but, however difficult it may be, we have to stand up to our democratic duty. It is this House that will confer ownership. Some prefer intergovernmentalism. Given that the agreed text is acknowledged as better than the Council general approach, this does not make sense. Nor does it make sense in the search for ownership – so distinctly missing in much of the response to the crisis and so much a consequence of intergovernmental decisions. From the realisation that the Stability Fund facilities had to be larger, to recognising the fact that punitive interest rates do not give sustainability and the chance to return to the markets, this House has not been afraid to lead and the Council has followed. We are stronger when we work together and I believe the final differences can be resolved."@en1
