lpv:spoken text	"It is important for the EU to maintain its focus on disadvantaged areas to ensure they do not suffer further in the current economic crisis. Helping poorer regions also helps more affluent ones by increasing spending power in neighbouring markets, which is one of the things the single market is all about. Structural funding is of immense use in tackling challenges in these regions and we must guarantee it continues to operate effectively, delivering sustainable and inclusive growth. This report commented on the delays in project selection for areas such as the rail sector, energy, the environment, the digital economy, social inclusion, governance and capacity building. These are key issues for competitiveness and therefore a key issue for economic growth. The EU must ensure excessive delays in respect of the allocation of funds are avoided."@en1
