Because this law to amend the Italian constitution has been before the Senate three or four times and the left have always obstructed it, although they have paid lip service to the idea that it is possible to make a new law to allow him back in. 	concession
We were well placed because of our links with the ACP countries, although there was an issue over their waiver which clouded the discussions, and because we have always worked well with NGOs. 	concession
Although these do not have a direct effect on the amounts of the transactions they often indicate a failure to apply control procedures properly. 	concession
These regulations actually came into force on 1 July this year, although the Commission tabled the proposals before this Parliament on 12 July. 	concession
Indeed we have a number of Commissioners who seem to be dealing with it, although Mr Liikanen is taking the lead. 	concession
Now at least we have a document, although I have to say that it is rather thin soup. 	concession
We will not support amendments 13 to 20: although we share concerns about finger-printing, we believe that the attempt to stop a register being created will fail to deal in realistic terms with the challenges that we face.  	concession
Although those are key points, crucial points, we believe that it is right that the IGC ranges beyond just those three issues. 	concession
Although ten years have elapsed and great strides have now been made, I believe that a good deal of confidence-building is still required and that we need the openness that many of us have called for in the preparation and the implementation of these reforms. 	concession
We do not have the ability to deal with nuclear waste although various fancy solutions have been proposed, including sending it to the moon, and we would be indeed on another planet if we agreed with Mr Chichester that nuclear power was a solution. 	concession
Although the EPLP is committed to the extension of the WTD to the excluded sectors, it understands the need for this to be done in a rational way. 	concession
Although naturally the summit did not go into the detail, there was a clear awareness of the importance of a strategic European Union/Russia partnership whatever the present difficulties. 	concession
"You may well be known as ""BATman Bourlanges"" although I cannot quite see you with a cape and mask, wearing underpants outside your pants, but you have done an extremely good job on the BATs! "	concession
Although I realise and I am grateful that the desire to have the votes or minutes published by the Governing Council does not appear in the motion for a resolution which will be voted on tomorrow by your Parliament, in this discussion a lot of attention, much more than I expected, was paid to the phenomenon of transparency, culminating in publishing the vote. 	concession
You will understand that I will not join Parliament in the debate on what decisions might be taken in the short-term on interest rates, although that decision has been alluded to by various Members of Parliament. 	concession
We can accept Amendment No 4 in principle although we do not believe this is a question of adding a third objective for the programme, but rather of clarifying its first objective. 	concession
Although South Africa' s neighbours have been promised compensation for the cost to them of adjustments in South Africa, it is far from clear how this will work in practice. 	concession
I would like to state that, although like many members I too regret the travelling circus between the various homes of the European Parliament, I am perfectly satisfied with my office design in Strasbourg, particularly if a lockable filing cabinet is installed as promised. I also value the luxury of a private toilet, unlike Baroness Ludford. 	concession
The Commission has made it clear that although Burma has become a member of ASEAN the European Union cannot agree to Burmese participation in the EC/ASEAN Agreement. 	concession
We look forward to developing the action programme for reform with the Commissioner responsible and although we have not had time to look at it in detail, I believe it would be fair to ask the Commissioner for a clear discussion and justification on why steps are not taken if some recommendations are left out. 	concession
Although industrial and radioactive discharges continue from a range of sources, the practice of direct dumping with little thought to the future is now widely regarded as unacceptable. 	concession
Furthermore, although the direct dumping of industrial materials, including military dumps of redundant munitions, is largely a practice which has been abandoned by Member States, the sites of such dumps continue to present a real threat to fisheries and in some cases, for example not far from my own coast, the Beaufort Dyke, a threat to human safety. 	concession
Unfortunately, when we went to the French courts, we were told that it was too late at that stage to get the redistribution of tickets ordered, although the French courts themselves recognised that European rules had been flouted in the procedure that was followed. 	concession
I warn the Council that although it has made progress on transparency, if the working group continues to be so restrictive on Parliament's rights to intervene, then there will be no agreement and we will continue in legislative procedure after legislative procedure to block the comitology measures and resist the adoption of such restrictive measures and we will be very restrictive on voting the budgets and the credits to allow comitology-type committees to continue to meet.	concession

Although the application remained frozen for those two years, Malta remains in a very strong position. 	concession
Although the Maltese authorities have introduced VAT, much new legislation is still required to bring Maltese law into line with the EU situation. 	concession
Although we do not yet have the ozone strategy because of the paralysis in the Commission, we know that sooner or later the emissions limit values will have to come in line with it. 	concession
Although I had planned my flight with plenty of time to spare, that proved insufficient. 	concession
I welcome the fact that the Commission, although not in office, has taken the trouble to be with us and will no doubt be speaking in this debate. 	concession
However, I must point out that there are considerable human rights problems in Central Asia as was vividly expressed by Mr Truscott this morning, although the extent of the problems varies from country to country. 	concession
Consequently, although I give the interim agreements a cautious welcome I must ask that the Commission to remain vigilant on human rights and, whenever possible, continue to point out to the respective countries the need to observe human rights properly. 	concession
Although the European Union has been very active in the nuclear sector, up to now there has been a clear failure of the European Union and G-7 policy. 	concession
Although some within the pharmaceutical sector protest at the very thought that there might be any risk of that, it seems reasonable to myself and many others that the use of public resources and legal support should be absolutely transparent. 	concession
Although it may at first appear to be a minor technical matter, the millennium bug has in fact the potential to bring the everyday life of millions of people to a grinding halt - if not worse. 	concession
Although the regulation comes to an end, the policy does not. 	concession
So, although I admire Mr Novo's work and commitment, I have to say that I will not be supporting his amendments. 	concession
We have to recognise that, although frequently in these debates about Kosovo it is all doom and gloom for Parliament, tremendous progress has been made, and two points in particular should be reinforced. 	concession
Although I have a whole stack in German, I would prefer them in my own language. 	concession
Although the exceptions are optional and can be adapted to national law at the will of the Member States, the amendments as they stand at present would introduce the obligation to introduce fair compensation. 	concession
Although it was addressed to you, the letter was in fact in response to a letter from me. 	concession
As rapporteur, I must present the report on behalf of the committee, although personally I am not in favour of some of the committee amendments, notably the refusal to place a time limit on liability for damage occasioned by land filling. 	concession
Although the directive is an improvement on the Commission's proposal which we rejected in 1996, it still does not go far enough to protect the environment and public health. 	concession
Although the U.S is unwilling to pay its debt to the United Nations it is quite willing to write off arms exports loans. 	concession
Although charges have come down they have come down disproportionately in favour of international calls which of course heavily favour the business user. 	concession
What we now need is to ensure that although the broad approach is right, the detail must be equally precise, firstly, in terms of social and environmental standards and sustainability. 	concession
The EPP Group will remain attentive to further proposals from the Commission and, although we do not particularly share the limited approach followed by the rapporteur, we are ready to lend our support on this significant matter. 	concession
And although he said in his answer that it is the responsibility of the Member States to implement, is there anything in the White Paper that can push the Member States a bit further to make sure they do just that? 	concession
In short, the question of the future budgetary rights of this Parliament still remains in abeyance although the culture has certainly changed. 	concession
We have to remember that, although fishing is a very small part of the European Union total gross domestic product, or however we should like to measure it, to those communities such as western France, Italy and Ireland, a few areas in the United Kingdom and some in Spain, fishing is about the only thing they have. 	concession
Although the Commissioner has told us, the United States, is not at present implementing the Helms-Burton law in certain respects, is he aware of the fact that many European businessmen have been intimidated into refusing to take the risk of incurring liability under Title 3 and Title 4 of the bill and, if they have had relations with the United States, have preferred to limit relations with Cuba or not have any at all. 	concession
In these circumstances, will there not come a time when, although no deadline has been set, further action will have to be taken to protect European businessmen from the effects of this situation. 	concession
I would also like to thank the Commission for bringing forward the documentation, although I may have a few critical comments to make as I go on. 	concession
Latvia is not at the negotiating stage yet although, as I said earlier, very significant progress has been made and there is a perspective. 	concession
Unfortunately, I cannot be that enthusiastic about Romania, although I hasten to add that the present government, and especially the present Prime Minister, have concluded themselves that there is a delay in the reforms in Romania. 	concession
We certainly have no reason to warn Cyprus of anything although there are certain things, for example the banking system and some judiciary matters which could be improved and which belong to the package which all candidate countries are working on. 	concession
It gives us that legal base for a set period although I have the same reservations as Mr Linkohr about the lack of a uniform legal base. 	concession
Clearly, the ECJ was correct to conclude that this is not a short-term project, although the jury may still be out on the word temporary. 	concession
It is that, although the European budget pays most of the cost, it does not have most of the say. 	concession
Although the European Commission is aware of the problem, this is the first time it has been raised, be it by the Mauritian Government, the UK Government or the Ilois people concerned. 	concession
This, unfortunately, is not so good although there are some good things in it. 	concession
Although the Community has no direct competence in the area of family policy, it has increasingly turned its attention to social and economic trends in society as they affect families. 	concession
The family is and always has been of essential value for European citizens, although its form varies and is changing. 	concession
Mr President, I think we have to accept this agreement now, although I have serious doubts as to whether we can implement it easily, since the sums it contains are smaller than those which Parliament thinks are necessary.	concession
Mr President, I think we have to accept this agreement now, although I have serious doubts as to whether we can implement it easily, since the sums it contains are smaller than those which Parliament thinks are necessary. 	concession
Although my group is not unanimous in its view, we feel that overall, given the improvement in the common position from the original draft, the common position should be adopted unopposed. 	concession
Although he offered me that invitation to come back because all is forgiven, I regret to say that I cannot reciprocate. 	concession
Although few will know it as the fireworks explode outside tonight, it is a very good reason for those of us here to enjoy some quiet celebrations for the introduction of what is a modest but important measure, and to thank all those responsible for achieving it, which I now do. 	concession
Although we see the sense of aptitude tests, sometimes Member States have used them to distort the true purpose of the directives. 	concession
There is a situation I remember in Yes Minister , a British television programme which many us have often enjoyed, in which Sir Humphrey announces that although they have the hospital they cannot afford to have any patients. 	concession
Although, as I understand it, they did not breach the disclosure requirements, because the levels of contamination were not that great - and I welcome the Commissioner making that point - nevertheless it would have been better if all information had been made public because more information, not less, is better for restoring and establishing public confidence in the nuclear industry. 	concession
"Furthermore, although Agenda 2000 purports to adopt a more market-led approach, the proposed payments to compensate farmers for a reduction in price are not time-limited and will do nothing to break the cycle of dependence of European farmers on European subsidies; nor will they address the legitimate concerns of the taxpayer. "	concession
Mrs Rothe's report also has excellent practical proposals and although the Commission's targets are extremely modest given what is technically feasible it is the actual implementation of even modest targets that must be our first objective if we are to achieve anything real. 	concession
Although the Eighth Annual Report specifically deals with 1996 and the current programming period, it is inevitable that we look at it in the context of the future for structural funding in general. 	concession
One of those priorities is in relation to our property policy in Parliament, Although we have such a thin attendance, we should perhaps note that part of that property policy renders the tense of Mr Viola's priorities in his explanatory memorandum slightly out of date. 	concession
In conclusion, I broadly support the common position although I have some concerns with the ethical considerations. 	concession
Although the political guidelines proposed by the Commission for negotiating the new cooperation agreements with the ACP provide a starting point for discussions on the renewal of our relationship, in too many areas I am afraid they are not much more than that. 	concession
At this time, although the Transport Council has taken a decision, no decision has been reached by the ECOFIN Council on whether or not to take this matter further. 	concession
It may well be that, although there is pain for the Greek economy in the short term, as the economy begins to restructure itself the benefits accrue in a longer-term perspective. 	concession
I thank the Commissioner for that reply and although, as she says, it is a technical subject, it is more a question of the interpretation of how we fulfil MAGP requirements. 	concession
We are interested in the shopping malls at US airports although there is of course no duty-free on domestic flights in the US. 	concession
Although there will no longer be a duty- and tax-free system there will be captive customers around the airports and on other means of transportation and therefore a substantial demand. 	concession
However, although this report goes through all the problems we know but does not quantify them, I hope it represents the start of a new chapter. 	concession
Competitiveness depends in particular on the costs of distance, climate, small communities and sparse population - the sparsest in the Community and often called the last wilderness although it is a man-made wilderness. 	concession
Clearly, because international investment is an area that is extremely competitive, one of the things that will happen is that, although it is an OECD agreement, there will be severe pressure on other nations looking for international investment to become signatories as well. 	concession
Although the OECD makes a lot of its own publicity material, I would like to have seen it have greater prominence in the context of this agreement. 	concession
I regret, therefore, that Robin Cook has not found it possible to come here, although he spent the whole of yesterday afternoon in the House of Commons. 	concession
My current thinking - although I do not have a completely closed mind on it - is that there has to be an element of discretion. 	concession
It is the logical development and follow-on from the United Kingdom's new ethical foreign policy and, although nothing is ever good enough for the Greens, I wanted the UK President-in-Office to know that the majority of Members in this House think this is a very serious and historic first step. 	concession
Although I accept that he cannot change the Council's position tonight, but could he not tonight agree to find space on a Council agenda to allow an opportunity for our Irish friends to put this issue to the Council with that fresh information so that it can be reviewed in the light of that information? 	concession
But if we saw a helicopter they would and I am not being entirely silly about this because, although I have had this debate with my colleagues in the Environment Committee, I am conscious that our aspirations for the Agency are completely different from that what has been set up. 	concession
Mr President, the two excellent reports from Mr De Luca and Mrs Wemheuer have shown one thing quite clearly: that tourism, although it has been a problem, is also a symptom of a much bigger problem. 	concession
Although it has not been implemented for several years, it remains in the Yemeni penal code. 	concession
It is an irony surely that in the moment when the decision is to be made as to who is to be in the first tranche, the UK has opted out, although it qualifies, and is not going to be in the first tranche. 	concession
Although the Labour Party has changed its mind six times on our membership of the EU since we joined 25 years ago, for the last few years it has been fairly consistent. 	concession
Although this is relevant to the European Parliament and although I know that Mr Cook is a long-time proponent of PR, would he agree with the attitude taken by his colleague, Mr Straw, the Home Secretary, that the electoral regions will be very large, and that it is highly unlikely that an individual candidate will be known by more than a fraction of the electorate in that region? 	concession

Although Mr Aznar expressed some concerns about some of the directions of the discussion in the Luxembourg Council, the agreement reached exempts no Member State. 	concession
Although, clearly, the Council proposal can hold in the short-term - which, in a sense, removes some of the pressure both on this Parliament and the Commission - nevertheless the problem will exacerbate rather than diminish. 	concession
Although there is an emphasis on satellites, we need to realize there are tremendous synergies with manned or, more politically correct, peopled activities, which is essential. 	concession
We must consider that although there is a civilian defence minister in Indonesia, the defence ministry is still heavily militarised. 	concession
So, although the vote of the Kuwaiti National Assembly on 30 November to deny those very rights to women in Kuwait was a deep disappointment, it offers some hope for the future. 	concession
Although much attention is rightly paid to the impact of marine accidents, in terms of the chronic pollution it is the operational spills and discharges of hydrocarbons, radioactive materials and other harmful substances which, because they go largely unnoticed, are a cause of major concern. 	concession
Ultimately the Treaty must also remedy the very bizarre position of the United Kingdom, Denmark and Ireland which have opted out of the new policies, although, in fact, a country like Denmark will apply the policies as they stand but on an intergovernmental basis. 	concession
I should like to thank the Commissioner for a thorough answer although he has not actually answered the last part of my question, namely, do there need to be two ratifications - one for EU membership and one for EEA membership? 	concession
This gets round the difficulties that many speakers have referred to in relation to delays with petitions, although I acknowledge that the situation has considerably improved since the committee was recently reorganized. 	concession
Although I have no doubt that the ECB will face many difficult challenges in the years ahead, I am pleased to report that so far it has risen to the challenges it has faced with considerable élan. 	contrast
Many parts of this building are impressive and beautiful, although it is also, in my opinion, grandiose. 	contrast
Although I do not expect anybody else to support that, I hope those who disagree will understand that in a democratic society when you make a commitment to people who elect you, you try and comply with that commitment when you get elected. 	contrast
But I would not single Poland out as the worst case although it is automatically the case that with a country as large as this, to a certain extent this dictates the dimensions of its problems. 	contrast
We should be very careful to maintain a balance: the magazine did subsequently print my article, although not in the special nuclear edition. 	contrast
I cannot therefore agree that the Council should approach the British Government to give the advice that Mr Kerr seeks, although he knows himself that if he wishes to give that advice to the Chancellor of the Exchequer he is free to do so. 	contrast
If the plenary decides not to support that view - although I very much hope it will - it is my group's view that this is a very important and sensitive political issue and I would like to ask that the gentlemen's agreement on taking such issues on a Friday morning should be adhered to and the vote be held at a later date. 	contrast
Those Members who are listening will be interested to know the very sad fact that although Ireland is the Celtic tiger the suicide rate in Irish prisons is one of the highest in Europe. 	concession
It will not be a big surprise that although there are a number of positive comments to be made on the economic side, on the political side a lot remains to be desired, notably the functioning of the political system, the role of the military, the question of the protection of human rights and other issues which are well known to the Parliament from the reports we have made earlier. 	concession
We discovered that the Maritime Marine Agency would not accept his qualifications, although the EU directive said it should. 	concession
A multinational company which runs a factory in my home country, Luxembourg, is allowed to continue to use CFC-11 as a solvent in an industrial process, although a substitute which does not deplete the ozone layer exists and has been used since 1995 in a second production line of the same company. 	concession
We are the land of whisky, but although the British treasury gets billions from that, we do not get very much in the way of financial benefit. 	concession
Whether we need the kind of policies at European level that Mrs Hermange suggests is open to question and although I am a federalist, there are areas here where subsidiarity has to operate. 	concession
However, it would be possible for us to come back to the issue of Chernobyl which does not have such immediacy although it is the tenth anniversary. 	concession
Article 2 refers to sustainable development as one of the objectives of the European Union, although many of us might question the methods which are set down to attain it. 	concession
Our problems with the resolution are not just on this point - although it is a very serious issue. 	concession
Mr President, as a new Member here, I am not rising to criticise the architecture and decoration of the building, although quite clearly I could. 	concession
Perhaps we should publicise it a bit more, although I suspect that would get us into even more trouble with the electorate. 	concession
Logically, therefore, the agency should have its operational base there, although in arguing for that option, everyone will, I am sure, bear in mind the very persuasive points that Mr Cohn-Bendit made in today's debate about previous experience. 	concession
Although I would have had major problems with the idea of an EU tax system - it is not something I could support - or that our salaries would be increased, we need to deal with the way in which expenses are dished out in this Parliament. 	concession
They are aimed at helping the SME sector although I realise that we are adding to the exceptions I have already talked about. 	concession
And finally, we enforce deadlines for reply or compliance much more strictly although, of course, the rights of defence of the Member State have to be respected. 	concession
As it is, the extenuating circumstances are that there has been a global recession, although Commissioner de Silguy very often claims that we have withstood this global recession almost 100 %. 	concession
It is also important for the future for us to look at the prospect of having own resources of a real nature, although this may still take some time yet. 	concession
Although Safe Action in Europe is no longer with us in body it is still with us in spirit. 	concession
As in all fishing policy we have to marry the exploitation of resources with the proper treatment of the environment and conservation of stocks, although the salmon farming world would obviously not want to conserve the stocks. 	concession
The institution where we find the greatest difficulties in decision-making is not the Commission or Parliament - although there are a number of difficulties of which we are aware - it is the Council of Ministers. 	concession
In some ways we could compare Mr Bangemann to a thorn amongst roses, although I am quite sure he will take the subject very seriously. 	concession
It should be noted that in many, although not all, cases the countries that employ it most are those whose record on democracy, human rights and the rule of law leaves a lot to be desired. 	concession
We should celebrate the high turn-out in those elections and the fair way in which they were conducted, although we should still register our concern at the severe reduction of the franchise in the functional constituencies and the possibilities for abuse of corporate voting in the functional constituencies through the registration of shell companies. 	concession
I particularly welcome the right to vote and stand as a candidate at municipal elections in the European Parliament, although I would flag up the generous voting rights granted to Commonwealth citizens in the UK and urge there is no reorganization of this and no attempt to water down the rights which exist. 	concession
My group was nevertheless prepared to accept the joint resolution in its entirety, including paragraph 5, although not totally happy with that paragraph, in the interest of reaching the widest possible consensus. 	concession
In that I think, Madam Commissioner, that you can lead as a facilitator although of course it is naturally up to nation states to build that into their national curriculum. 	concession
In conclusion, I broadly support the proposal and the amendments although I may have some concern about particular aspects. 	concession
But there was an anomaly in the way the previous ruling was being interpreted, so that you could even have a subcommittee meeting - although it may never have done so - where none of the members of the subcommittee were actually members of the full committee. 	concession
We do not see any need to set up a separate agency and I do not imagine the Commission does either, although we noticed that Mrs Bjerregaard is not gracing us with her presence tonight. 	concession
Speaking in a personal capacity, I have been delighted in the last few weeks to discover that the British Conservative Party is now the champion of the rights of the European Parliament, although I regret that this has been to the detriment of their former commitment to enlargement of the European Union. 	concession
What concerns me is that when one starts to look through this agreement - I have tried to read it on several occasions, although it is far from finalized at present - it raises a large number of questions. 	concession
Madam President, I would just like to say I was present although I am not included in the list at the back. 	concession
Although I have my reservations, I hope I am also realistic and it is that realism that forces me to give my qualified support at this time. 	concession
The important thing about the code is that it establishes a common criteria and a way of ensuring that those common criteria are applied, although it must always include an element of judgement. 	concession
We fear that it will occur again on 7 April, although the Commissioner himself informed this House that the infringements that took place last year were in breach of regulations and promised to act. 	concession
Since April there have been numerous arrests although many of those arrested on unjustifiable grounds have now been released. 	concession
Women's rights are restricted although the situation is much better than in some other Arab states. 	concession
Clearly we need closer cooperation, although that cooperation has to be within an international framework. 	concession
It is interesting that the large part of Mr Souchet's report deals with economic matters and although NATO is dealt with in the explanatory memorandum, nothing is said about our approach to it in the future. 	concession
On Mrs Fraga' s report, although I welcome the general thrust of the report, there are a couple of problems. 	concession
Although redeployment appears necessary to finance this new priority, one must take account of the fact that too great a redeployment risks destabilizing the budgetary and political balance in external relations. 	concession
You can show that although second-hand goods are, by definition, different from those that are purchased new, a different period of reflection and remedy suffices. 	concession
We would urge the IMF also to act vigorously in this regard because, although each State has a right to defend itself against terrorism, what we observe in Chechnya is grossly disproportionate to the scale of the perceived threat and we have to deplore and condemn it at every opportunity. 	concession
This proposal has many beneficial effects and, although concern has been expressed about the cost, it is not great. 	concession
"We have had 2.5 million cattle slaughtered in Britain; we have had to submit about 2 000 pages of documentation on how the disease has been combated, although not yet eradicated, in our country. "	contrast
Although in some respects the proposal is much better than what was presented in 1996, I am concerned that a number of aspects of the legislation are very weak and could result in governments finding ways to opt out of their commitments on waste management and public health protection.	contrast

You will forgive me, Prime Minister, if I say that the launching of the single currency on 2 and 3 May was not quite such a seamless operation, although all of us appreciate that you were seeking to reconcile seemingly irreconcilable positions, something we contend with in this House very often.	contrast

It is notable that although both argue for alternative agricultural activity, both rapporteurs conclude that there has been no evaluation by the Commission.	contrast
However, at the moment it is banked with bankers, although Article 109c does not specify whether representatives should come from national banks or from economic and finance ministries.	contrast
It also appears discriminatory that the Prime Minister's daughter, Marina Mahathir, has not, on the other hand, been targeted by the authorities although she too has been a critic of the government from time to time.	contrast
