lpv:translated text	". Mr President, President-in-Office of the Council, ladies and gentlemen, it is utterly astounding that we are to decide here on the future of the common agricultural policy, but have had essential criteria for this decision withheld from us. There is nothing to prevent a new delimitation of less-favoured areas being carried out. It is also acceptable to try to base this on fewer criteria than is currently the case. However, if these are to be limited to eight criteria, made up of climate-related and geological criteria, it is unacceptable for MEPs to be denied the opportunity to scrutinise whether these criteria are indeed appropriate. We need maps of the new distribution of less-favoured areas in order to be able to examine whether this new distribution based on the eight criteria makes any sense at all. However, the withholding of the map material will obviously arouse distrust as to whether there really is any desire at all to enable Parliament to exercise its right of codecision. As a farmer, I have serious doubts from a purely professional point of view as to whether these simple criteria will enable this sort of area classification to be made appropriately. There are, after all, other criteria that could convey disadvantage, such as a lack of infrastructure, labour market access or general historical farm structures. Moreover, different combinations of various criteria could lead to very different results. It is high time that we were able to evaluate the Commission’s proposals in an objective way in order to be able to improve them if necessary. Otherwise, I would agree with my fellow Members who wish to leave less-favoured areas out of the current agricultural reform discussion."@en1
