I would say, Mr. Chair, that if the parliament is meeting in Strasbourg, I would actually get rid of Brussels. I've been to the European parliament on many occasions. When the parliament is meeting, the senior bureaucrats--pretty much all of them--move their staff to Strasbourg. They're not in Brussels. You're going to get junior people in Brussels, not senior people, during the time of the parliamentary meetings.
On November 1st, 2010. See this statement in context.
