lpv:translated text	". It is a cause for concern that commitment implementation for internal policies has fallen to 10% as of April 2003, compared with 24% in 2002. This is due, of course, to the budget chapter on technological research and development, which is a priority given the EU’s weaknesses in this area. There is also a downward trend in terms of commitment implementation for areas of social policy, especially for the titles relating to the social dimension and employment as well as education and youth, even though these priority areas were already underfunded. The reasons for this situation, apart from a lack of political will, include bureaucracy, a lack of transparency and the inflexibility of spending regulations. The poor implementation argument cannot, of course, be used to justify cuts in sensitive areas. It is unacceptable to suggest that allocations to the social dimension and employment are unnecessary, at a time when unemployment is on the increase in the EU. I regret that the rapporteur did not specifically address the fisheries question, especially the reconversion of the fleet which used to fish in Morocco waters and the lines relating to social dialogue with the sector. That would have been useful, bearing in mind the planned reduction of the preliminary draft budget for 2004 and the Council’s vagueness about funding for the reform of the common fisheries policy."@en1
