lpv:translated text	"Mr President, President Van Rompuy, President Barroso, Commissioner Rehn, ladies and gentlemen, just yesterday the Italian statistics office reported that the figure for tax evasion in Italy in 2008 was between 16% and 17% of GDP, which comes to between EUR 255 billion and EUR 275 billion. With such figures there will never be any control of the deficit. In its annual report the Italian Court of Audit spoke of the cost of corruption for 2009 at EUR 60 billion, adding that we will never have any kind of growth. The income gap is widening, and we therefore have no social cohesion. I believe it is imperative for the EU to update its convergence criteria, also adding parameters relating to good governance and social equality. I should say that the verification carried out by the Commission on the tax shield of the last Italian government, that from our point of view violated a large part of the European standards on money laundering, competition and tax evasion – as well as on VAT evasion which, following our appeal, was proven to be correct – demonstrates lack of attention on the part of these institutions regarding an approach that should be fair and global."@en1
