'There is a shortage of English native speaker conference interpreters working for the EU – let’s dismantle the whole EU interpretation service, outsource it to a small translation company set up in a back bedroom somewhere in Sicily and that will solve the problem.'

It is therefore highly prejudicial of the EIA to use it to bolster arguments that are specific to public service interpreters.'
