Ian Hudghton (Greens/EFA) − I am fully supportive of initiatives designed to promote history and cultural heritage and I voted in favour of today's second reading documents which highlight the need to appreciate national and regional diversity. I am dubious however as to whether 'strengthening European citizens sense of belonging to the Union' can or should be fostered by way of legislation. Identities cannot be forced on anyone and political institutions can only survive for as long as they have the support of the people.
