Mary Honeyball (S&D). – Madam President, first of all, I would like to thank everyone who signed this declaration. It is a very important subject. I am sure you are all delighted that we have adopted a declaration asking for adequate funding for vaccinations in developing countries.
I would like to thank the NGOs we worked with: GAVI, Global Health Associates, the ONE Campaign and Results UK. I would also like to thank the other proposers, Ms Vergiat, Ms De Keyser, Mr Newton Dunn and of course Mr Kelly, who I know now wants to say a few words.
Seán Kelly (PPE). – Madam President, very briefly, I concur with the thanks that Mary very kindly mentioned a minute ago. I should just like to say to everybody that the poor children of Africa will be the beneficiaries of your generosity by, hopefully, having a longer life and a better quality of life.
