"Ladies and gentlemen, Commissioner, Mr Pohjamo’s resolution included some amendments tabled by the Group of the Party of European Socialists and some tabled by Mr Fava and myself.
I would like to draw your attention to two amendments which I feel to be important: the amendment on the principle of additionality and the amendment clarifying the concept of cross-border region. Additionality is essential so that Structural Funds appropriations supplement national funds rather than replacing them.
I would add that Parliament cannot and must not be a spectator in the management of structural expenditure. In this respect, I would put forward two guidelines: firstly, the reform and modernisation of the public administration; and secondly, the establishment of development banks consistent with PEP and SPD parameters.
I will end by calling upon Commissioner Barnier to take note of the fact that there needs to be some flexibility in the application of automatic decommitment in that the process must recognise those who are working successfully in the same Member State. It is right that the idle should not be allowed to get away with it, but it is also right that those who benefit should be the best, the most far-sighted and the most modern."@en1
