"I am voting for this motion for a resolution because it ascribes the proper importance to renewing and giving more time to the Global Monitoring for Environment and Security (GMES) programme, given its increasingly important role in the field of the environment. The GMES programme was implemented to observe the planet Earth; that is, to monitor developments in terms of climate change and deforestation, of measuring greenhouse gas emissions, of environmental sustainability, of civil protection and security, and of economic opportunities that could result from research, development and innovation. I admit to fearing intergovernmental funding for the GMES post-2013, as advocated by the Commission. This is not just doubtful in terms of the EU’s genuine interest in the programme, but could also potentially be a step backwards towards a programme that will need to be more European in scale and which will have shortcomings with regard to transparency, and to full, open and equal access for all.
I therefore agree that there is a need to call on the Commission to table a legislative proposal that counters all the aforementioned problems; that is, to announce management and funding supported by the multiannual financial framework and a road map to the GMES being operational, thereby ensuring that it is safely and adequately implemented and that it is fully operational from 2014."@en1
