I am delighted the Chairman is present so I can take my place and ask my questions. I will be brief as the ambassador has many questions to answer. He mentioned the simplification of institutions, something he might tease out. This committee is seeking submissions on the Europe 2020 strategy, an issue to which the programme has given considerable space, and will focus on it after the recess. Perhaps the ambassador can give an indication of what the Italian Presidency will do in respect to the 2020 strategy.
