I most certainly do and it’s the reason I can say that Peter was only one of the speakers. I did indicate that in my post to you. The statement “After much debate” would indicate that there were many who spoke. Peter’s portion was only significant in that it was he who was primarily assigned to the Jews and would have been the person who knew well that the law of the Old Testament was not to be applied to the Gentiles as it had been to the Jews.

Yet Catholics want to single out Peter? The RCC trying to force an interpretation should show all that they manipulate scripture to maintain control and for no other reason.

Sorry you have this misconception.
