"Mr President, literature, theatre, architecture, the visual arts, crafts, the cinema and television demonstrate Europe’s cultural diversity. They are all part of Europe’s common cultural heritage even though they belong to specific countries or regions within Europe. One of the European Union’s aims is to preserve and support this diversity and make it accessible to all. This was laid down, for example, in the Maastricht Treaty, in which the cultural dimension of European integration was expressed formally for the first time. The European Social Fund supports the Arturo Toscanini Foundation in Italy. The Foundation has been running training courses for unemployed musicians since the mid-1990s. The Culture Programme is one of the European Union’s flagship programmes and runs between 2007 and 2013. It has a budget of around EUR 400 million for that period. It is a programme for cultural actions that are not of an audio-visual nature. I trust we shall persevere in our support for artists and for all actions promoting culture. After all, culture is just as important as economic or industrial activity. It is for that very reason that I voted in favour of this report."@en1
