I seek leave to make a short statement.

I just want to emphasise in the presentation of this report that there was a very thorough process that accompanied this report's consideration, that the report's outcome was a unanimous resolution of the entire committee and that the Privileges and Members' Interests Committee operates via consensus at all times. Ultimately, it was a disappointing outcome that we couldn't reach agreement with Mr Quaedvlieg regarding this matter.
