Given that I have raised this issue to the committee, I have a conflict of interest on this matter. As a result, I explicitly abstain from voting on this matter. This may be relevant in case, five out of seven members have voted in favour of one option. Given my explicit non-vote, the vote may no longer be in doubt at that time. Helmut
