lpv:translated text	"Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, following our appeal for a improved distribution of European film, we are now turning to the legal aspects we could employ to promote it. Mr Vander Taelen has again acquitted himself outstandingly of his task of commenting on the Commission communication, for which I thank him warmly. In the Netherlands, we stimulate investments in film production by means of fiscal measures for the limited partnerships that invest in film production. I welcome this mainly because the exemption clause for culture of Article 87(3) of the Treaty establishing the European Community allows for this. Yet, this is not sufficient. I should like to make two points. The EIB and the EIF can make an important financial contribution, especially where European film production is concerned, that involves production measures from different Member States. I would call into question whether we should go so far as to involve the EIB in the purchase of digital projection equipment for cinemas, as proposed by Mr Vander Taelen. My group fears that this would open the floodgates to arbitrariness and competitive distortion. Secondly, I should like to remind you that as long as we do not know what the public want, we cannot adopt a targeted promotion policy for the European film. It is therefore essential for research to be done into the motives of the film-going public regarding their film choices. In addition, it is of crucial importance for young people to be involved in European film too. Cinematographic training and learning are the appropriate ways of familiarising them with our film production and of teaching them to appreciate these. The exciting initiative to set up a pan-European children’s channel in order to broadcast the better European children’s films on a Europe-wide scale receives my warm consideration, and it is an excellent instrument to achieve this. In this way, the European citizen is made aware of our extremely diverse European culture from a very young age, as it is expressed in the European film, and we need to duly commit to this."@en1
