MINUTES

(2008/C 180 E/01)

PROCEEDINGS OF THE SITTING

IN THE CHAIR: Hans-Gert PÖTTERING

President

1.   Resumption of the session

The sitting opened at 17.00.

2.   Statement by the President

The President made a statement on Parliament's behalf condemning the attack carried out by ETA on 14 May in Legutiano, in the Spanish Basque Country. He conveyed Parliament's condolences to the family of the civil guard Juan Manuel Piñuel, who was killed in the attack, to the Spanish people and to the democratic institutions of Spain.

Parliament observed a minute's silence in memory of the victim of the attack.

3.   Approval of the Minutes of the previous sitting

Francesco Musotto had informed the Presidency that he had been present at the sitting of 08.05.2008, but that his name was not on the attendance register.

The Minutes of the previous sitting were approved.

4.   Composition of Parliament

By letter of 9 May 2008, José Manuel Barroso (President of the Commission) had informed the President of the European Parliament that the Council of the European Union had nominated Antonio Tajani as a member of the Commission in place of Franco Frattini.

The President of the Commission intended to entrust Antonio Tajani with the transport portfolio.

Parliament noted that, pursuant to Article 7(1) of the Act concerning the election of the members of the European Parliament by direct universal suffrage, this post was incompatible with that of Member of the European Parliament and that Antonio Tajani's mandates had therefore been incompatible since 9 May 2008, the date of his nomination by the Council as a member of the Commission.

Parliament had yet to rule on the appointment of Antonio Tajani as a member of the Commission pursuant to paragraph 4 of the Framework Agreement between Parliament and the Commission and under Rule 99 of its Rules of Procedure, and the President therefore proposed that the establishment of the vacancy of the seat be postponed until the vote in plenary. However, in view of the incompatibility of his mandate with effect from 9 May 2008, Antonio Tajani could no longer take part in the work of the European Parliament and its bodies.

Under Rule 3(2), until such time as their credentials had been verified or a ruling had been given on any dispute, and provided that they had previously made written declarations stating that they did not hold any office incompatible with that of Member of the European Parliament, Iva Zanicchi, Fabio Ciani, Catiuscia Marini, Giuseppe Bova and Roberto Fiore would take their seats in Parliament and on its bodies and wouldenjoy all the rights attaching thereto.

However, it was noted that Giacomo Santini, Matteo Salvini and Edmondo Cirielli could not take their seats in the European Parliament as they were currently members of the Italian Parliament, a post incompatible with that of Member of the European Parliament under Article 7(2) of the Act of 20 September 1976 concerning the election of the members of the European Parliament by direct universal suffrage. Their seats would therefore remain vacant.
