In that connection, I should like, on behalf of the Group of the European Liberal, Democrat and Reform Party, to support the Commission’s proposal for the linear career structure which has been mentioned quite a few times this evening and in which promotions are made on the basis of ability and effort.
À ce propos, je tiens, au nom du groupe libéral, à soutenir l'initiative de la Commission en matière de linéarité des carrières dont on a plusieurs fois parlé ce soir et selon laquelle les promotions se feront sur la base des compétences et du mérite.
