lpv:translated text	"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, the decisions made at the Spring Summit appear to be good, but we are aware that they will only be judged by events. There are some great opportunities and also some risks in what we decide. Overall, we are allocating new responsibilities to the political decision-making body, and we must try to make these responsibilities promote integration rather than dissociation. Transposed directives and national reform programmes must consist not just of generalities but of genuinely focused and measurable choices. The flexibility of the Pact must be increasingly transparent and managed exclusively for purposes of growth, according to sound common criteria. In this respect, a sensitive case involving Italy has started, and I want to say that we call on the government, the Commission, the Council and Eurostat for each of them to carry out their work wisely, transparently and fairly, because the people of Italy are entitled to clarity and truth in respect of their public accounts, that is to say their own future. With the decisions of the Spring Summit we shall no longer be in the situation we were in before: if we do not have more Europe, we shall have less. That is why it is so important to make decisions that can guarantee integration and hence the Commission’s role in the coordination of macroeconomic policies, the improvement of basic statistics, the involvement of national parliaments, the genuine integration of national and European planning instruments, the strength of the Union’s budget, investments in infrastructure and research, the European dimension, and so on. We shall have to work hard to achieve all that. For now, in any case, I offer my heartiest congratulations to the Luxembourg Presidency."@en1
