A draft opinion (PE 390.367) was adopted, with amendments Nos 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6.

Rome I:
A package of mainly technical provisions – comprising 15 provisions in total – was put to a vote and adopted unanimously.

Rome II:
Together with you (Vice President Wallis), we completed this dossier during the German Presidency, and the formal steps will follow shortly. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the constructive nature and pleasant atmosphere of the Conciliation Committee talks on 15 May.
Now all that remains is for the Conciliation Committee’s conclusions to be formally adopted by the Council and the European Parliament. To the best of my knowledge, this can take place before the summer break.

Cross-border economic activity of small and medium-sized enterprises:
Our Presidency programme originally included deliberations on the so-called 14th company law Directive on the cross-border transfer of registered offices.
Unfortunately, contrary to plans that were expressed to us, the Commission has not yet submitted its proposal.
We would welcome this proposal, just as we would welcome proposals to introduce a European private company.
