PROBLEM: Sanningen är att frustrationen ökar när vi konstaterar svagheterna i konventionen (och protokollen i anslutning till detta skydd), som fem år efter att den undertecknats ännu inte har ratificerats eller trätt i kraft.

SOLUTION: Frustration inevitably sets in when we see the weakness of the Convention (and of the protocols relating to this protection) which, five years after being signed, has still not been ratified and has still not come into force.

PROBLEM: Denna regeringskonferens sätter i gång med en inriktning, åtminstone inledningsvis, på att få institutionerna att fungera bättre, särskilt med hänsyn till den önskan vi alla har om att de skall bli just mer demokratiska, öppna och effektiva.

SOLUTION: This Intergovernmental Conference will, at the outset, concentrate on improving the way the institutions operate, particularly taking account of the desire we all share for them specifically to become more democratic, more transparent and more efficient.

PROBLEM: Vi kommer därför att rösta för de krav på reformer som framförs i resolutionen, men mot att ansvarsfrihet beviljas.

SOLUTION:
We are therefore going to vote in favour of the demands for reforms which are presented in the resolution, but against the granting of discharge.
