lpv:translated text	"I offer my congratulations on the work carried out by the rapporteur, Mrs Carvalho. I am firmly convinced that science, innovation and research are the main drivers of economic growth and job creation in Europe. It is no accident that research and innovation lie at the heart of the Europe 2020 initiative. It is therefore time for Europe to invest more in these areas: to compete on the world stage, the European Union must develop innovative products and modern services. As a result, the number of applications for funding is increasing on a daily basis, meaning that a general simplification of the financial accountability requirements is needed, together with harmonisation of the currently highly diverse rules and procedures. I voted in favour because I agree that we need to respond swiftly to the research community, which has been clamouring for these changes. I endorse the approach taken by the rapporteur of basing the funding system not on results, which may lower the scientific ambition of researchers, but on scientific criteria and, hence, on excellence. Administrative simplification is one of the major priorities that Europe must address, and greater internationalisation of the framework programme may create new opportunities and possibilities for cooperation with third countries, including developing countries."@en1
