"Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, these measures from the Commission appear to be sound, more or less. Directly awarding contracts to the European Investment Bank and the European Investment Fund seems a good idea, as does simplifying procedures and speeding up payments.
However, above all there is one fundamental recommendation: national and regional transparency regarding the use of funds, which is lacking in some cases, in my opinion. Checks should be carried out promptly, just as payments should be made promptly. In Italy, in certain regions, such as Lazio, farmers’ funds are paid out months or, in some cases, years after being transferred from the European Union, and I do not have time now to give other examples. Let us therefore ease the crisis by considering not only different kinds of intervention, but also the effective, timely and efficient use of funds."@en1
