"I voted in favour of this resolution because with it, the European Parliament is seeking to contribute to the issue currently under discussion in the EU institutions regarding the financing of the European Earth Monitoring Programme. Indeed, currently, there is disagreement as to which funds should finance this European Earth Monitoring Programme in future. This raises concern over the future of the programme. Failure to guarantee adequate or long-term and stable financing would mean even greater costs over time, citizens would not have equal opportunities to receive appropriate information, the programme would be suspended or even halted, and its data provision would cease. This could ultimately mean that the investments made to date have been fruitless, and Europe will lose its independence and technological advancement in this space infrastructure. In its resolution, Parliament thus criticised the European Commission for its inaction in failing to initiate the adoption of the necessary legal acts, and expressed its disapproval of the Commission’s proposed funding and governance structure for the European Earth Monitoring Programme."@en1
