"Dear colleagues, as you may see this act is something the EU needed a long time ago thats why i think it should be proposed now or never, but i know there are many things missing or badly redacted thats why i invite all of you to do any changes you consider necesary and i will gladly mention you as co-author.
Adam Karlssen
Councillor for Mennrimiak -
Debate shall be extended for a further 24 hours, until 03:00 GMT on September 16th, 2020.
The premise of this act is very good, and the actual contents presented are also very good, but it just appears to be incomplete.
The European Union currently has a framework for establishing patents, and it would be interesting to see copyright be included within that same framework. I suggest that the esteemed Councillor from Mennrimiak looks into this. As always, my door is open for any willingness to jointly collaborate on such an endeavour.
Edward Firoux
Council Speaker and Councillor for Inquista -
Well, as i saw, this proposal still needs some work in order to be properly debated, i hereby request to withdraw this proposal.
Adam Karlssen
Councillor for Mennrimiak -
This legislation has hereby been withdrawn from consideration.
