I look forward to a strong Commission proposal next summer.

The result is the Commission proposal on which you have been working.

I should like to make the following points about the rest of the Commission proposal.

There is one point, however, where the Commission proposal goes too far.

By doing so, they have put the support for this important Commission proposal at serious risk.

That was never really made clear in the Commission proposal.

That is why this Commission proposal and the report are needed.

I would very much welcome your support of the Commission proposal.

This was followed, in 2008, by a Commission proposal which we have since been working on for three years.

So our view is that this Commission proposal does not provide the answer.
