lpv:spoken text	"Question No 60 by Glenis Willmott () As part of the Lisbon Agenda we talk about unlocking European potential and focusing on creating more growth and employment. Yet the engineering sector, a sector which could provide both these things, is all too often neglected here in Europe. China produces 1 million engineering graduates each year and rising. If we compare this with the EU, the EU produces around 170 000 and falling. In the UK alone it has been estimated that by 2012 UK manufacturing and engineering will not be able to meet its requirements for graduates and apprentices by new or young entrants alone. How does the EU propose to counterbalance the competition posed by the new emerging economies and to recruit and train the necessary workforce here in Europe?"@en1
