Request for defence of parliamentary immunity of Renato Brunetta
2008/2147(IMM)
The European Parliament decided by 652 votes to 7, with 11 abstentions, to defend the immunity and the privileges of Renato BRUNETTA (a former Italian MEP).
He is pursued in Italy for allegations of slander. Following the opinion of the Legal Affairs Committee, the European Parliament considers that Renato Brunetta’s immunity should be defended given that he was defending his opinions expressed in the performance of his duties as an MEP.
