Rónán [Ronan] Mullen uses this word in his questions to the President of the European Parliament and I post his reply below. I'm not at all reassured by his answer

The last question relates to the right to life and family issues. The European Parliament respects these. While we can have resolutions on different topics, European Union law has certain meanings. In the treaties everything is clearly written - the responsibilities of individual member states and national governments, and what is decided at EU level. From this point of view, the division is clear. All the guarantees in our treaties will be kept, and I am sure the European Parliament will stick to this position.
