lpv:translated text	"I am voting in favour of the proposals contained in this report in general. I believe that the role of the European Parliament is eminently political with regard to the Commission’s proposal to create a programme of accompanying measures for Africa-Caribbean-Pacific (ACP) banana-producing countries. I also believe that this programme can only legitimised by a paradigm shift from a purely commercial angle to the broader and more integrated one of development and the fight against poverty (goal number one of the Millennium Development Goals). As EU-ACP preference agreements are incompatible with the agreements signed between the EU and the World Trade Organisation and since positive results have been obtained in the ACP banana-producing countries under previous preference agreements, we should support the adjustment, reorganisation and competitiveness of the banana exporting sector in these countries. In a broad sense, these accompanying measures for the banana sector should have a positive impact, not only for the producers, the first link in the production chain, but also with regard to the criteria for the fight against poverty. In this way, the whole chain may benefit from decent, acceptable living conditions and easier access to the markets."@en1
