lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, I voted in favour of this report on the application of Rome II – the rules applied in conflicts of law in cases of non-contractual obligations. The report proposes changes to the regulation which would mean that it would also cover violations of privacy as well as rights regarding legal personality. The report I have just voted on also takes into account the ECR Group’s concerns, in relation to the initial draft, that the proposals had the potential to impact negatively on press freedom. The report does highlight the fact that the UK is the most attractive jurisdiction in which to bring an action for defamation, as it is regarded as the most claimant-friendly in the world. Although this is currently being investigated by the UK Government, and I think some sense of rebalancing in this area is needed, we are understandably supporting or looking very carefully at the proposal that this type of action should formally come under the remit of Rome II."@en1
