Mine is my religious belief.

Religion and belief are not separate entities.

Our belief is that the two systems can coexist.

It strains my belief in the principle of subsidiarity.

Managerial and executive staff will give corporate shape to this belief.

The first is a policy of persuasion.

That is not how political persuasion operates.

20988 Peat must also be included in it, as many of my colleagues have argued with persuasion here.

983 It is also a matter of conviction.

This recommendation is born of a firm conviction.

32336 The conviction was upheld last week.

Allow me to share my conviction with you.

21431 We will therefore vote for it with great conviction.

I now come to the statement of assurance.

That is clearly not a positive statement of assurance.

We should like an assurance that this will be duly corrected.

This requires structural change and enhanced consumer confidence through quality assurance.

Allow me to conclude with a few comments on the declaration of assurance.

In all events, the peaceful resolution of any conflict must be our creed.

I find the anti - regulatory creed that some of our colleagues have struck up utterly paradoxical.
