lpv:translated text	". The fact that I voted to approve these regulations must not be confused with the opinions expressed by the rapporteur. With regard to the circulation of euro coins, it is essential that the public should be protected against any kind of fraud, in this particular case that arising from confusion with similar medals or tokens. Since the euro changeover, there has been a growing number of cases of fraudulent use of fake euro coins in coin-operated machines. These regulations define the level of similarity to euro coins that should be banned for medals and tokens. This is one more way to combat the counterfeiting of euro coins and notes. Although we are all in agreement so far, I utterly reject the rapporteur’s subjective opinions on the success of the single currency or Parliament’s ‘full-hearted’ support for the ‘historic project of Economic and Monetary Union and its single currency’. This is not just because practical problems with the introduction of the single currency are beginning to surface as time goes on, such as its inflationary effects and the increase in bank charges and commission. I also reject it because, at the level of economic and monetary policy, a serious assessment is needed of the effects of the euro on economic growth and employment, particularly in the less developed Member States such as Portugal."@en1
