"gavel" in Spanish

The use of my gavel was not aimed at you but at an MEP who was trying to interrupt you.

If you wanted to get them to sit down, you ought to have wielded the gavel.

I actually had one second of my speaking time left when the President brought his gavel down.

Indeed, as you well know, when in the Chair, I am strict with the gavel but lax with the clock.

This is the first time that Austria wields the presidential gavel.

I have finished, and there is no need for you to use your gavel.

And on that note, Mr President, I shall obey your gavel.

I can watch the US Senate on television gavel-to-gavel. But not the European Parliament.

I shall endeavour to bang my gavel as required in order to let you know that your speaking time has elapsed.

I thought you were finishing, then suddenly you continued your speech, so I did not know whether or not to bang the gavel.

he rapped his gavel for silence

The last bit, that was hardly audible because the President was hammering away with his gavel, fits in with this report.

I will not bang my gavel, I will not beg and I do not want to be misunderstood.

I notice that the gavel is going down after exactly one minute, and not 30 seconds later, as it has done for everyone else.

I accept the criticism and will therefore call Members to order either in a more widely-spoken EU language or using the gavel.

I will finish, so that you do not strike the gavel, by saying that, in his speech, Mr Van den Broek was very constructive and very modest.

gavel-to-gavel coverage

You will recall that at the end of my allotted one minute of speaking time earlier today, I noticed you had the gavel poised at 59 seconds.

Likewise, it is a man that strikes the gavel of the President of the European Parliament and a man that is Chairman of most of the parliamentary committees.

Unfortunately though, I only have one gavel: I would have needed 80 or 100 to throw at all the Members who were not listening to your speech.
