lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I am now focussing just on sport, or more accurately, its absence from the draft budget that has been adopted by the Council. A statement has been made in many consecutive summits, most recently at Nice, on the social importance of sport. Despite that, sport is hardly taken into consideration in the work of the Union. The situation has become more critical as, unfortunately, the EU had to withdraw from WADA funding. The Committee on Budgets has repeated the proposal by the Committee on Culture, Youth, Education, the Media and Sport, which was agreed in Parliament’s first reading, for an appropriation of five million euros for preparatory actions for a Community policy in the field of sport. The appropriation would be used, for example, to help the work of sports associations to prevent exclusion amongst youth. I hope that the motion will receive Parliament’s support in the vote on Thursday. It would also be very much in harmony with preparations for the physical education theme year."@en1
