Socialists in the European Parliament have called for the proposed Justice Commissioner, Rocco Buttiglione, to stand aside after he called homosexuality a sin.
Mr Buttiglione, a friend of Pope John Paul II & Italian P.M. Berlusconi, issued an apology for his remarks & also said he regretted saying that "marriage existed to allow women to have children & enjoy the protection of men".
The Daily Telegraph revealed on Wednesday that Buttiglione, who is Italy's Minister for European Affairs, had been under investigation as part of a year-long inquiry into money laundering.
