20/04/2021 | 10:38:54 Thank you, Mr President. Madam Chancellor, On behalf of the French delegation, allow me to begin by paying tribute to your deep, sincere and decisive commitment to Europe. I would like to thank you for your commitment to Europe, which is deep, sincere and decisive. You were the first woman to be elected to the Federal Chancellery and you have held the highest political positions in your party and in the German government. You are an example for many women who want to enter politics. As you... 19/04/2021 | 19:48:44 Thank you. That concludes the general debate. The Committee on Equality and Non-Discrimination has presented a draft resolution and a draft recommendation, to which no amendments have been tabled. We will now proceed to vote on the draft resolution, with a simple majority required. Members present will vote using the Chamber voting system and members participating remotely will use the remote voting system. The vote was opened, both in the Chamber and remotely. The draft resolution in... 19/04/2021 | 19:12:01 Thank you very much. We heard your statement quite clearly. It wasn't a point of order necessarily, but we take note of what you have said. Before we proceed, I would like to say that, up until a few speakers ago, I think we had a very measured debate, everybody was able to speak. I really we should not engage in a game of ping-pong trading insults towards one another. I think it would really undermine the great valie of this debate. I think that Ms KOVÁCS deserves better. Right, that was... 19/04/2021 | 17:40:56 I have heard Mr Ahmet YILDIZ's request and Mr Aleksander POCIEJ's reply. I think that we will continue. The next item of business this morning is the debate on the report on "Preserving national minorities in Europe" presented by Mrs Elvira KOVÁCS on behalf of the Committee on Equality and Non-discrimination. I call Mrs KOVÁCS on behalf of the Committee on Equality and Non-Discrimination. I remind the Assembly that the sitting is to be adjourned at 7.30 p.m., so we must interrupt the debate... 19/04/2021 | 17:36:00 So we will have to vote. Before calling for the vote, I remind you that the proposal of Mr Arkadiusz MULARCZYK is to return the list of candidates in respect of Poland to the Committee for the election of judges to the European Court of Human Rights. We will vote by a simple majority. I remind the Assembly that, for the sake of clarity, those who support Mr MULARCZYK's objection should vote in favour; those who support the recommendation of the Committee on the Election of Judges to reject... 27/01/2021 | 17:29:47 Thank you. Thank you. In view of the agenda, I must now interrupt the list of speakers. Registered speakers who, being present in the debate or remotely connected, were unable to speak, may, within four hours, transmit their typed speeches to the Sittings Service for publication in the minutes of proceedings provided that the remotely connected speakers are able to report their actual presence at the end of the debate. This transmission must be made by electronic means. I remind you that at... 27/01/2021 | 11:18:55 Thank you, Mr President. Madam rapporteur, My dear colleagues, The debate that brings us together today is at the heart of current events around the world, as it concerns the concerns of a few billion people. That is how important and interesting it is. The excellent report by Ms Jennifer DE TEMMERMAN, for which I congratulate her, presents in clear, intelligible and objective terms all the challenges facing the international community and states today. Science and the pharmaceutical... 26/01/2021 | 18:38:16 Thank you Mr President. Mr rapporteur, dear colleagues, The crisis that the Council of Europe went through from 2014 to 2019 had the merit of making us collectively aware of the fragility of our organisation and of the need to provide more appropriate procedures, in line with the Statute of 1949. The changes to the rules under discussion today are the result of close and ongoing dialogue between the two bodies of the Council of Europe. A joint sanctioning procedure for states seriously... 25/01/2021 | 19:22:16 If the amendment is no longer supported, it is withdrawn outright. Amendment No. 9 and its oral sub-amendment are forgotten. Amendment No. 8, which was rejected by a two-thirds majority by the Commission, should in theory be rejected outright unless there is an objection. There are no objections, so Amendment No. 8 is indeed rejected. There are no more amendments to discuss. The vote on the draft resolution contained in Document 15-211, as amended, is open.Clos The vote is open. The vote is... 25/01/2021 | 19:19:29 We will now proceed to the vote on Amendment No. 6, as subamended. The vote is 69 in favour, 21 against and 11 abstentions. Amendment No. 6, as amended, was adopted. Amendment No. 10 was rejected by a two-thirds majority in committee. I imagine that the same principle is still being followed, namely: is there any objection to it also being rejected in the sitting in the manner indicated? There is no objection. Amendment No. 10 is therefore definitively rejected. Amendment No. 11, in the same...
