Speaker 1

Good afternoon everybody. Please take your seat. We have some votes for the afternoon. I mention that as a substitute to this voting session, Cristina Guarda substitute for Ignazio Marino and Abir Al-Sahlani substitute for Emma Wiesner. We have now a test vote to check if everything works.

So if you enjoyed your holiday, it's green, otherwise it's red, no opinion white. Open the vote. I close the, no, hold on. We are 71. Okay, we close the vote, everything works.

So we can now move to the first voting item that is the number six, the general budget. The first vote is a compromise by raising our hand. Who is in favor? Who's against? Who abstain?

Adopted. And we go to the final vote by roll call vote. I open the vote. I close the vote and it's adopted, 48 in favor, 20 against, 3 abstention. The second item is always about budget.

We will not have a final vote but we will only vote the amendments. So we start with the amendment number one. Who is in favor? Who's against? Who abstain?

I check. I open the vote. I close the vote and it's rejected by one. Compromise number two. Who is in favor?

Who's against? Who abstain? Check again. I open the vote. I close the vote and it's rejected.

Amendment number three. Who is in favor? Who's against? Who abstain? I'll check again, sorry, because I see some hands that is different.

I open the vote. I close the vote and it's adopted. Amendment number seven. Who is in favor?

Who's against? Who abstain? I say adopted. Check, check. I open the vote.
