") I envy Mr MacCormick, who has succeeded in saying so much in one minute to illustrate his vote, while I can only manage to say a few words, as on this occasion too, to justify why I voted for Mr Pomés Ruiz’ report on cohesion policy in the islands and regions with low population density. With regard to the latter, the European Parliament is doing well to treat this issue as a matter of importance. In this connection, I would like to recall, in particular, the Sami people of Finland and Sweden. As regards the islands, which genuinely have low population density and really are inconvenient places to live, I propose that the Member States increase the pensions of pensioners living on islands. Greece, for example – the native land of our Commissioner, Mrs Anna Diamantopoulou – would see the population of its islands rise again unexpectedly if pensions were higher there."@en1
