We committed to giving our statutory opinion as soon as possible, but this doesn't mean that drafting was swift and straightforward. This draft text is the culmination of... 28/01/2025 | 19:54:11 Thank you, Madam Chair. It's really a very interesting topic. And today I found myself that we are speaking more and more of the terms which people used in Middle Ages.
