"I voted in favour of this Regulation (EC) No 1905/2006 establishing a financing instrument for development cooperation: lessons learned and perspectives for the future. 2011 is a strategic moment to draw lessons from four years of operation of Regulation (EC) No 1905/2006 establishing a financing instrument for development cooperation (DCI). Further simplification and adaptation to new challenges, such as climate change, as well as determining the external dimension of the EU’s internal policies, are important aspects that must be taken into consideration. I agree with the provision set out in the resolution that the future instrument for supplying EU development aid must be adequately equipped in financial terms. The EU has committed itself to the collective target of spending 0.7% of its Gross National Income (GNI) on Official Development Assistance (ODA) by 2015. The current level of European aid will have to increase significantly to achieve this aim. Coordination and division of labour must be the guiding principles of programming under the new development instrument. The idea of European strategy documents should be pursued as a matter of high priority, and the European Parliament must be actively involved in this process. Parliament must have the opportunity to defend the specificity of the EU’s development policy in the post-2013 development cooperation instrument by scrutinising strategic programming decisions on an equal footing with the Council."@en1
