"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, the ITER project is of international strategic importance to the European Union, which has taken a leading role in this vast research project to guarantee future energy supplies, alongside other countries such as the United States and Russia.
The final agreement on this important project is a victory that aims to secure the continuation of ITER by providing funding for the period 2012-2013.
After a series of complex negotiations in the trialogue, Parliament scored a major success by getting agreement for ITER to be financed with new money secured through a revision of the multiannual financial framework to raise Heading 1a by EUR 840 million, while the remaining EUR 360 million will be made available from within the 2013 budget.
The importance of this agreement lies in the fact that it avoids financing ITER by redeploying funds from the Seventh Framework Programme or from Heading 1a, which are key headings for pulling the European economy out of crisis and which under no circumstances should be jeopardised.
I therefore hope that my fellow Members will vote unanimously tomorrow to support this project, which is crucial for the whole European Union."@en1
