"Mr President, I would like to congratulate Mr Gierek on his report.
Ladies and gentlemen, a research programme that manages its own resources outside the Seventh Framework Programme and that has an annual budget of EUR 60 million cannot but be well received and supported by Parliament, especially taking into account that steel is still used a great deal in various sectors of industry and that there are still many scientific and technological challenges to overcome in order to make production processes cleaner and more efficient.
With regard to coal, the challenges are even greater due to its implications for energy production and for achieving our objectives for combating climate change.
Making coal more competitive in the energy market, improving the safety and operating capacity of the mines and achieving cleaner combustion requires R&D, and the new technologies for capturing and storing CO
are an area of research that the European Union has clearly backed. I therefore fully agree with the content of this report.
I would also like to congratulate the rapporteur on his sensitivity to gender equality by proposing measures to achieve a greater presence of, and participation by, women in a sector in which men are still in the majority."@en1
