PROCEEDINGS OF THE SITTING

IN THE CHAIR: Hans-Gert PÖTTERING

President

1.   Resumption of the session

The sitting opened at 15.00.

2.   Statements by the President

Murder of Piotr Stańczak

The President made a statement condemning the murder of the Polish engineer Piotr Stańczak by his abductors in Pakistan on 6 February 2009. The President expressed Parliament's sympathies with the victim's family and friends.

Parliament observed a minute's silence in memory of Piotr Stańczak.

Forest fires in Australia

The President made a statement on the recent forest fires in Australia, expressing Parliament's sympathies with the Australian people and in particular with the victims of the fires.

Baha'i community in Iran

The President called on the Iranian authorities to reconsider their case against seven Baha'i dignitaries imprisoned since May 2008.

Expulsion of Luis Herrero-Tejedor from Venezuela

The President protested against the expulsion by the Venezuelan authorities of Luis Herrero-Tejedor, Member of the European Parliament, who had been in Venezuela as an international observer of the constitutional referendum of 15 February 2009.

Sarah Ludford had made it known that she had been present at the sitting of 2 February 2009 but that her name was not on the attendance register.

4.   Follow-up to a request for the defence of immunity

On 9 December 2008, Witold Tomczak had made a new request for the defence of his immunity and privileges in the context of a case pending before the district court of Ostrów Wielkopolski (Minutes of 02.09.2008, Item 12).

After the Committee on Legal Affairs had been asked to deliver an opinion on the matter, the Chair of that committee had communicated the committee's recommendation that this fourth request by Witold Tomczak be deemed inadmissible.

5.   Verification of credentials

On a proposal from the JURI Committee, Parliament validated the mandates of Maria Berger, Călin Cătălin Chiriță, Daniel Petru Funeriu, Adrian Manole, Iosif Matula, Alexandru Nazare, Eva-Riitta Siitonen, Alin Lucian Antochi and Vasilica Viorica Dăncilă.

6.   Interpretation of the Rules of Procedure

The President informed the House, under Rule 201(3), of the following interpretation of Rule 47 provided by the Committee on Constitutional Affairs, which had been consulted on the application of that provision:

‘When examining an international agreement under Rule 83, the procedure with associated committees set out in Rule 47 may not be applied in relation to the assent procedure under Rule 75.’

If this interpretation was not contested by a political group or by at least 40 Members (Rule 201(4)) before the Minutes of the current sitting were approved it would be deemed to have been adopted. Otherwise, the matter would be put to the vote in Parliament.

7.   Corrigendum (Rule 204a)

The committee responsible had forwarded the following corrigendum to a text adopted by Parliament.

| — | Corrigendum to the position of the European Parliament adopted at first reading on 23 September 2008 with a view to the adoption of Regulation (EC) No .../2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council of adapting a number of instruments subject to the procedure referred to in Article 251 of the Treaty to Council Decision 1999/468/EC with regard to the regulatory procedure with scrutiny (COM(2007)0824 — C6-0476/2007 — 2007/0293(COD)) (P6_TA(2008)0429) |
| - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

Pursuant to Rule 204a(4) of the Rules of Procedure, this corrigendum would be deemed approved unless, not later than 48 hours after its announcement, a request was made by a political group or at least 40 Members that it be put to the vote.

The corrigendum was available on the Séance en direct site.
