"Mr President, Commissioner, there is no doubt that over the years, the Cohesion Fund has helped to make less developed regions within the Union stronger. However, it would be a mistake to think that we do not need to question the current level of the Cohesion Fund. The impending accession of a number of new Member States alone would prompt this. I welcome the fact that Mr Marques has outlined the goals, means and conditions of the Cohesion Fund. The fund was set up to help Member States meet the convergence criteria with the EMU in mind. There is no ambiguity in this respect. The Structural Funds, on the other hand, are designed to help meet other goals. The accession requires us to evaluate and revise the structural policy, including that of the Cohesion Fund, but in my opinion, not so many changes are required. It is important, however, for the fund only to be used for the purpose it was intended. If that is the case, the existing system has many successful years ahead, even following the accession."@en1
