So, good morning colleagues. It's my pleasure to see you again. And I'm super happy that you are all here already. We are having today here with us the Secretary General of the European Parliament with all of his team. We are very happy to welcome him.

And you don't have to stop speaking now because I'm just making a general introduction because we are not yet having the full attendance that we would need for the vote. And I just wanted to let you know as we have been deciding before, I will not read out anymore all the people that replace existing members of the committee because that's the task of the coordinators to make sure that only good people replace members of this committee and therefore it's your it's your task to manage this. And the agenda of today foresees that we have a vote. And I see that we are still missing some members so I will try to use a bit of the time to report to you that we had already at 9 o'clock a meeting of coordinators. We have taken some decisions that your coordinators will disclose to you soon.

And the first step that we have to do is that we agree on the agenda. So I don't see anyone disagreeing on the adoption of the agenda. We can therefore then confirm this. Secondly, or number third of the agenda is the chair's announcements. It's a bit always the same interpretation, you know the languages that are here.

You know that this meeting might be webstreamed. And also the part with the Secretary General. And the adoption of coordinators' decision is as always be done by delegation of this committee and therefore there is no need to speak about further here. And then I see further colleagues that have joined us. We should then come to our vote at 9:30 on the discharge 2024, the general budget of the EU, the European Council and the Council.

Pasquale Tridico is our rapporteur. I don't know if you want to have a short comment. No. So we can therefore then immediately start the vote. Maybe you put your maybe you put your cards into the system so that good morning Raul.

Good morning. So shall we make a check? Yes, maybe you press one of the buttons so that we know that you are using it. And we close the vote. And we have 20 members and 15 have been voting so maybe we get a better outcome later.

We come therefore to the vote and the first vote we have to do is the decision on discharge. It's a single vote, a roll call vote. So if you vote plus, you grant the discharge, if you vote minus, you refuse the discharge. The vote is open. The vote is closed.

So, and it's rejected 19 votes against, one in favor. Then we come to paragraph one, amendment two. In favor, against, abstentions, adopted. Amendment three, in favor, against, abstentions, adopted. Amendment four, in favor, against, abstentions, adopted.

Amendment five, in favor, against, abstentions, adopted. Amendment six, in favor, against, abstentions, adopted. Amendment seven, in favor, against, let's check this, please open the vote. Amendment seven, close the vote. 15 in favor, six against, adopted.

Amendment eight, in favor, against, abstentions, adopted. Amendment nine, in favor, against, rejected, abstentions, rejected, sorry. Compromise amendment one, in favor, against, abstentions, adopted. Amendment 12, in favor, against, abstentions, rejected. Compromise amendment two, in favor, against, abstentions, adopted.
