I would like to thank all those who took part for their cooperation, particularly Commissioner Reding and her offices, the Portuguese President-in-Office of the Council, Mr Fontes, who certainly did not have an easy time of it at the hands of the Finance Ministers, and I would also like to thank the youth forum for its input.
Je remercie tous les participants pour leur coopération, surtout la commissaire Reding et ses services, le président portugais du Conseil, M. Fontes, qui n’a certainement pas eu la vie facile face aux ministres des Finances, ainsi que le forum de la jeunesse pour sa contribution.
