"I voted in favour of the European Commission’s proposals to continue nuclear research as nuclear energy currently plays an important role in Member States’ energy mix and in ensuring energy security. I support the approach adopted by the Commission, recommending that great importance must be attached to current funding in the nuclear sector, as the European Union is engaged in a decision-making process on the future of nuclear energy, which will be determined, to a large extent, by the results of the technical risk and safety assessments carried out on nuclear power plants in the EU. Furthermore, research in this area is also vital for decommissioning nuclear power plants in some Member States and for dealing with the activities involved in the long-term management of nuclear waste. It is important that the Euratom Seventh Framework Programme for nuclear research can continue until 2013 as this will allow businesses, research centres and universities to contribute to streamlining nuclear energy research activities (fission and fusion) and radiological protection."@en1
