"Mr President, the Community’s strategic guidelines for the upcoming seven years that are before us represent a considerable step, and are particularly helpful in shaping the new Member States’ cohesion policy, which will ultimately mean a more unified and cohesive Europe for all of us within a few years. The European Parliament has acted with the greatest possible speed in preparing the Community’s strategic guidelines, and now it is up to the Member States to draw up the best, most credible and most feasible national development plans possible, and to submit these to the European Union. Allow me to draw attention to a few aspects of the document which did not receive much emphasis earlier, and which therefore did not constitute the same sort of incentive when the Member States were drawing up their own development plans. I would like first to mention the part of the document which stresses the broad participation and involvement of the various civil and professional organisations, and urges giving equal say to all in the process of preparing Member States’ national development plans. The perspective according to which health is considered an economic value and a motor of development represents a great advance in the document, which recommends the same approach in preparing national development plans. Today health no longer means simply improving the health care system or making it more accessible, but includes creating more and better jobs, the goals of sustainable development as well as the principle of equal opportunity already mentioned. The attention to improving the transparency and accountability of European Union support is a very important step forward, and thus strengthens trust among the Member States. We all know what an enormous job it is to prepare such a document. For my part, I can only thank and congratulate the rapporteur, Mrs Krehl, and the shadow rapporteur, Mr Olbrycht, for their excellent work."@en1
