David Martin (PSE). – Mr President, very briefly, the PPE-DE Group has made paragraph 4 a fundamental issue in this report. We would have voted in favour of it, but not if they get a big consensus for the report. We are suggesting abstentions. I request that members of the PSE Group abstain on that paragraph.
Le Président. – L'Assemblée est donc à présent informée.

David Martin (PSE). – In order to find a consensus, we are suggesting that where the text reads ‘it would be appropriate to revise the rules on trade defence measures’, the word ‘revise’ be deleted and replaced with the word ‘evaluate’.
