– Report: Rübig (A6-0155/2007)

- Before the vote:

  Martin Callanan (PPE-DE). – Mr President, on a point of order, in line with the Rules of Procedure, I would like to declare a pecuniary interest in the Rübig report. I will not be taking part in the voting on the items in question.

  President. That is very proper. Most of us have mobile phones!

  Roger Helmer (NI). – Mr President, I also rise under Rule 166 to declare a pecuniary interest. As a Member of the European Parliament and a frequent user of mobile phones, I stand to gain a great deal from this legislation. Therefore I disqualify myself from voting. I trust many of my colleagues will join me!

(Laughter)

  President. Well that is noted!

  Richard Corbett (PSE). – Mr President, following the logic of the last two speakers, will you enquire whether there may perhaps be a solitary Member of the European Parliament who does not possess a mobile phone? Then that Member can determine whether or not we adopt this legislation!

(Laughter and applause)

  President. I think we can move on now.

- After the adoption of the legislative resolution:

President. Congratulations to Mr Rübig and to the mobile phone users of Europe!

(Applause)

  Paul Rübig (PPE-DE), Berichterstatter. – Herr Präsident! Ich bedanke mich beim Haus für die Zustimmung und insbesondere beim Rat, dass er zugesagt hat, dass spätestens der 27. Juni der Zeitpunkt ist, zu dem die Verordnung in Kraft gesetzt wird. Und zu den Kollegen, die sich enthalten haben, möchte ich sagen: Wir reduzieren die Kosten für die Steuerzahler.
