This, I believe, is a maxim that should be taken to heart.

369 (c) Commitments undertaken in virtue of international coventions must be given full implementation in domestic law.

These two recommendations are undeniably logical and deserve serious thought.

I regard this as an interesting proposal which merits reflection and in depth consideration.

On a very small number of points we can argue in favour of a different wording or, indeed, deeper reflection.

In his report and his speech today the rapporteur has illustrated excellently the history of the Joint Research Centre and has drawn a parallel with national research centres and other international research centres.

in depth reflection and a very wide ranging basic debate prior to a directive laying down the rules to be adopted.

As has already been stated, it is essential to undertake an in depth study of the working procedures of the WTO and its organisational structure.

Amendment No 18 concerns an issue which might possibly be dealt with more thorough ly at a different time.

This is an issue on which a more thorough discussion is needed, based on a full and rigorous study of the workings of the current system.

But I would like to call you attention to the need for further reflection on two specific points.

To offer a more thorough reflection on the struggle for gender equality on the internet, we will present Coral Herrera s work in two parts.

In that way, they will have further work to do by way of subsequent amendment when the directive has been adopted.

Health policy in Europe should not, however, be limited to the text on which we are about to vote, and should have been the subject of a more thorough deliberation.

Under these circumstances, it is vital to reflect at length on how to minimise the negative effects and maximise the potential released for European Union businesses by liberalised markets.

Although no formal decision has yet been taken by the European institutions, it seems to be accepted that the Treaty of Paris will not be extended beyond the year 2002 and that that deadline will not be put back.

It could be maintained that in overall terms the legislation proposed is better than nothing, but to the Commission it nevertheless appeared insufficient and far from reassuring.

This raises the sensitive issue of how the companies concerned can be controlled, and it means that we need to think more about the role of the European Community in relation to third countries, and in particular the United States.

It must be strength ened before it is expanded.

It should be further developed and deepened.

Can Europe seriously be exonerated from the need to carry out an in depth analysis of a policy that accounts for almost half of its budget, at a time when it is preparing to welcome 10 new countries?

Recent developments in human cloning in the United States have once again highlighted the need for, and the urgency of, in depth political reflection in this area, including and especially at European level.

More generally, a thorough look at all our policies is needed to take account of the quantitative and, even more so, the qualitative aspects of the new environment we will be working in after enlargement.

This is why Parliament has proposed the creation of a Euro Turkish forum, bringing together qualified representatives of the Turkish community and those Members of the European Parliament that have been given the task, for in depth discussions.

A final comment.

Reflection period

Mr President, President in Office of the Council, Commissioner, the Informal Council Meeting at Biarritz raised hopes that in depth consideration would be given to the preparation of the Nice summit, which is to lead on to the reform of the European institutions.

On the contrary, cooperation needs to be deepened.

But as your rapporteurs and many speakers have pointed out, the kind of article you are envisaging, similar to the one on education and culture that fully respected the subsidiarity principle, is, in my view, worth serious consideration.

Mirrors exhibit specular reflection.

In sufficient reflection beforehand ?

It is a sad reflection on the ability of anyone if they have to personalise attacks.

Thank you for your comments.
