lpv:translated text	"I come from an outermost region, the Azores, where milk production is the pillar of the economy, society and the environment. In recent weeks we met with the producers, their organisations and the processing industries. They all agree. It is crucial that the Commission should give a more effective and urgent global response in order to tackle the current situation. Cash flow in the sector is drying up. It is vital that the outermost regions be looked at particularly carefully by the EU and be included in its responses to mitigate the effects of the current crisis. They are all of the opinion that we need to stop the increase in quotas. In a market thrown off balance by surpluses, any country that increases its production harms all the others. They also believe that we should continue to maintain quotas as a supply regulation mechanism that stabilises their activity. In the current scenario of total liberalisation, its social, environmental and economic effects on these regions need to be urgently studied. Specific measures must be designed to prevent the collapse of this activity, which is responsible for our beautiful countryside, the quality of our environment and rural areas, and the economic progress and convergence that we have been achieving."@en1
