On 7 March 2007 the Italian Chamber of Representatives decided that those of its members who were involved in the same proceedings were fully covered by absolute immunity, thus regarding their behaviour as the legitimate exercise of their parliamentary mandate.

Participating in a semi-military style uniformed association which apparently gave the impression that it would seek to achieve its objectives through the potential or actual use of the force is clearly contradictory and incompatible with the role and the responsibilities of a parliamentary mandate and cannot therefore be regarded as the legitimate exercise of the freedom of speech and, in general, as the normal performance of the duties of members belonging to an elected assembly representing citizens.

As for Article 10, given that the charges brought against Mr Gobbo refer to facts committed in Italy, whose citizenship he enjoyed at that moment, the only applicable part is the one pursuant to which " during the sessions of the European Parliament its Members shall enjoy: a) in the territory of their own State, the immunities accorded to members of their parliament ".

Without authorization from the House to which they belong, no member of Parliament may be subjected to a personal search or have their domicile searched, neither may they be arrested or otherwise deprived of personal freedom, or kept in detention, except to enforce a final conviction, or if caught in the act of committing a crime for which arrest is mandatory.

Of course, since the European Parliament, as legislative body elected by direct universal suffrage, enjoys absolute autonomy when taking its decisions, on no account can the conclusions of the Italian Parliament on the applicability of absolute immunity to the facts committed by its own members be binding.

On the basis of the above considerations, the Committee on Legal Affairs, having heard Mr Gobbo and having examined the reasons for and against defending his immunity, considers that parliamentary immunity within the meaning of Article 9 of the Protocol of 8 April 1965 on the Privileges and Immunities of the European Communities and, insofar as it is relevant, Article 68, first subparagraph, of the Italian Constitution do not cover the facts committed by Mr Gian Paolo Gobbo and therefore decides not to defend his immunity and privileges.

Приложение VII, част В а (нова)
Annex VII, Section C a (new)
Със съгласието на Бюрото, въз основа на обосновано решение, на член на ЕП може да бъде отказан достъп до документ на Парламента, когато Бюрото след изслушване на съответния член на ЕП се убеди, че това преглеждане може да доведе до недопустимо накърняване на институционалните интереси на Парламента или на обществения интерес и когато преглеждането е поискано от члена на ЕП по лични причини.
With the approval of the Bureau, a Member may, on the basis of a reasoned decision, be denied the right to inspect a Parliament document if, after hearing the Member concerned, the Bureau comes to the conclusion that such inspection would cause unacceptable damage to Parliament’s institutional interests or the public interest and that the Member concerned is seeking to inspect the document for private and personal reasons.

Парламентът взема решение по жалбата без разисквания, по време на месечната сесия след нейното подаване.
Parliament shall reach a decision on the appeal without debate during the part ‑session that follows its being lodged.
Änderungsantrag 1 - Die aktuelle Fassung von Artikel 8 der Geschäftsordnung entspricht nicht mehr der Rechtslage, die nach Inkrafttreten des Abgeordnetenstatuts bestehen wird.
Amendment 1 - The current wording of Rule 8 of the Rules of Procedure is no longer consistent with the legal situation which will obtain following the entry into force of the Statute for Members.
Von diesem Zeitpunkt an beruhen die Regelungen betreffend Kostenerstattungen und Vergütungen der Mitglieder auf den Artikeln 9-23, 27 und 28 des Abgeordnetenstatuts und nicht mehr auf dem Selbstorganisationsrecht des Parlaments gemäß Artikel 199 EG-Vertrag.
From that moment on, the rules governing the reimbursement of Members’ expenses and Members’ allowances will no longer be based on Parliament’s right of administrative autonomy, pursuant to Article 199 of the EC Treaty, but instead on Articles 9 to 23, 27 and 28 of the Statute for Members.
Es erscheint zweckmäßig, dass die Durchführungsbeschlüsse über solche Angelegenheiten weiterhin vom Präsidium gefasst werden.
It makes sense that implementing decisions concerning such matters should continue to be taken by the Bureau.
Mit der vorgeschlagenen Neufassung des Artikels 8 wird dem Präsidium eine entsprechende Regelungskompetenz übertragen.
The proposed new wording of Rule 8 will grant the Bureau corresponding regulatory powers.
Die dem Präsidium in Artikel 22 Absatz 2 zugewiesene Kompetenz für finanzielle, organisatorische und administrative Entscheidungen in Angelegenheiten der Mitglieder bleibt sinnvoll, denn sie betrifft die politische Verantwortung für die Durchführung der Regelungen im Einzelfall.
The competence to take financial, organisational and administrative decisions on matters concerning Members conferred on the Bureau by Rule 22(2) should be retained, since it concerns political responsibility for the implementation of the rules in individual cases.
Änderungsanträge 3 bis 6 - Zweck der vorgeschlagenen Änderung ist die Verwirklichung des in Artikel 5 des Abgeordnetenstatuts vorgesehenen individuellen Rechts eines jeden Abgeordneten, im Rahmen des Initiativrechts des Parlaments einen Vorschlag für einen Gemeinschaftsakt einzubringen.
Amendments 3-6 - The aim of the proposed amendments is to make practical arrangements for the exercise of the individual right, granted to every Member by Article 4 of the Statute for Members, to table proposals for Community acts in the context of Parliament’s right of initiative.
Das Statut selbst stellt dieses Recht unter einen Regelungsvorbehalt.
The Statute itself stipulates that Parliament will lay down in its Rules of Procedure the conditions for the exercise of this right.
Es verleiht dem Abgeordneten deshalb keinen Anspruch darauf, dass sein Legislativvorschlag dem Plenum zur Abstimmung unterbreitet wird.
Accordingly, individual Members are not entitled simply to have their legislative proposals put to the vote in plenary.
Das Einbringungsrecht ist gewahrt, wenn die Prüfung des Vorschlags in einem angemessenen Verfahren sichergestellt wird.
The right to table proposals is granted subject to the establishment of an appropriate procedure for their consideration.
Hierzu bietet sich die Anknüpfung an das in Artikel 39 der Geschäftsordnung geregelte Verfahren an.
In that connection, the reference to the procedure governed by Rule 39 of the Rules of Procedure makes obvious sense.
Es erscheint sinnvoll, Legislativvorschläge individueller Abgeordneter zu einer summarischen Vorprüfung an den zuständigen Ausschuss zu überweisen.
It would seem to be appropriate for legislative proposals tabled by individual Members to be referred to the committee responsible for summary preliminary consideration.
Um das individuelle Vorschlagsrecht gegen eine mögliche Aushöhlung abzusichern, sollte aber vorgesehen werden, dass der Ausschuss innerhalb einer bestimmten Frist über das weitere Vorgehen beschließen muss und dass er vor einem Beschluss, die Beratungen ohne Bericht einzustellen, dem Verfasser des Vorschlags die Möglichkeit geben muss, seine Argumente in einer Aussprache vorzutragen.
In order to prevent the individual right to table proposals from being undermined in any way, provisions should be incorporated stipulating that the committee must take a decision on further action within a set time-limit and that, before it takes a decision to halt consideration of the proposal without a report, it must give the author of the proposal an opportunity to set out his or her arguments in an exchange of views.
Das Recht eines Abgeordneten, seinen Vorschlag für einen Gemeinschaftsakt in der von ihm gewählten Amtssprache einzureichen, kann in Anbetracht von Artikel 138 der Geschäftsordnung nicht eingeschränkt werden.
In the light of Rule 138 of the Rules of Procedure, no restrictions can be imposed on the right of each Member to table a proposal for a Community act in the official language of his or her choice.
Die Übersetzung solcher Vorschläge in alle Amtssprachen würde aber die verfügbaren Ressourcen überfordern und könnte Missbräuche des Vorschlagsrechts auslösen, mit dem Ziel, Übersetzungen für bestimmte Textpassagen zu erhalten.
However, the translation of such proposals into all the official languages would place an excessive burden on available resources and could give rise to abuses of the right to table proposals with the sole aim of securing the translation of certain passages of text.
Wenn diese Garantien für das individuelle Vorschlagsrecht gewährleistet sind, erscheint es durchaus sachgemäß, die Ausarbeitung eines Berichts über einen Legislativvorschlag, wie bereits jetzt in der Geschäftsordnung vorgesehen, zusätzlich zu dem Beschluss des Ausschusses auch der Genehmigung der Konferenz der Präsidenten zu unterwerfen, die aber nur dann verweigert werden darf, wenn die in Artikel 5 des Abgeordnetenstatuts sowie in Artikel 192 des EG-Vertrags aufgestellten Voraussetzungen nicht erfüllt sind.
Once these guarantees of the individual right to table proposals for Community acts have been established, it would seem to be entirely appropriate that the drafting of a report on a legislative proposal should also be subject to authorisation by the Conference of Presidents, as already stipulated in the Rules of Procedure, authorisation which can then only be denied if the conditions set out in Article 5 of the Statute for Members and in Article 192 of the EC Treaty have not been met.
Denn das Initiativrecht als das Königsrecht eines jeden Abgeordneten darf durch die Geschäftsordnung nicht ausgehöhlt werden.
The right of initiative, the sovereign right of every Member, must not be undermined by the Rules of Procedure.
Mit diesem Grundsatz vereinbar ist eine Prüfung durch den zuständigen Ausschuss, ob es angebracht ist, einen von einem Abgeordneten eingereichten Gesetzgebungsvorschlag dem Parlament mit einem Bericht zu unterbreiten.
What would be consistent with that principle, however, is an assessment by the committee responsible of the appropriateness of submitting a Member's legislative proposal to Parliament in the form of a report.
Hält der zuständige Ausschuss einen Bericht für angebracht und entspricht der Vorschlag den Voraussetzungen des Artikels 5 des Abgeordnetenstatuts sowie des Artikels 192 des EG-Vertrags wäre eine Verweigerung der nach Artikel 45 der Geschäftsordnung erforderlichen Genehmigung eine unzulässige Aushöhlung des "Königsrechts" eines jeden Abgeordneten..
If the committee responsible regards a report as appropriate, and if the proposal meets the conditions set out in Article 5 of the Statute for Members and Article 192 of the EC Treaty, denial of the authorisation required pursuant to Rule 45 of the Rules of Procedure would undermine in an unacceptable way the sovereign right enjoyed by every Member.
Der Abgeordnete, der in Wahrnehmung seines "Königsrechts" einen Gesetzgebungsvorschlag einreicht, hat außerdem ein legitimes Interesse daran, daß dieser Vorschlag bei den weiteren Beratungen des Parlaments mit seinem Namen verbunden wird.
Moreover, a Member who exercises this sovereign right and tables a legislative proposal has a legitimate interest in ensuring that his or her name remains attached to the proposal throughout its subsequent passage through Parliament.
