In accordance with Rule 3(2), as their credentials had not been verified or a ruling given on any dispute, Elisabetta Gardini, Giovanni Robusti and Kostantinos Droutsas would take their seats in the European Parliament and its bodies and enjoy all the rights attaching thereto, provided that they had previously signed the declaration that they did not hold any office incompatible with that of Member of the European Parliament.
Saskaņā ar Reglamenta 3. panta 2. punktu, kamēr Elisabetta Gardini, Giovanni Robusti un Kostantinos Droutsas pilnvaras nav pārbaudītas vai kamēr nav pieņemts lēmums par strīdīgu jautājumu, viņi darbojas Parlamentā un tā struktūrvienībās, un uz viņiem attiecas visas ar šo darbību saistītās tiesības, ja viņi pirms tam ir parakstījuši rakstisku deklarāciju, ka neieņem ar deputāta mandātu nesavienojamu amatu.
