Desuden er aftalen blevet undertegnet af Kommissionen uden en forudgående udtalelse fra Parlamentet, og jeg er derfor enig med ordføreren, når han siger, at Parlamentet skal informeres, og at protokollen skal overholdes.
Furthermore, the agreement was initialled by the Commission without first consulting Parliament for an opinion, which is why I agree with the rapporteur who maintains that Parliament must be informed and that the protocol must be observed.
