"Mr President, I welcome the review of the 2020 Strategy. The very fact that we are even having a debate ahead of it is an improvement on where it came from, where Parliament had to fight to find a way into have any sort of sense of ownership with it – let alone wider civil society, social partners and others that were supposed to be engaged – so I hope that we manage a very good and broad consultation on this.
I also very much welcome the linking with the new Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), because I think that gives us some new sets of dimensions, not least a more global one. The SDG on sustainable consumption and production, which links to the proposals coming up on the circular economy, will be important in terms of how this fits with sustainability within the European Union and really develops the ideas on new skills for new jobs, issues around just transition, and indeed the investment that others have spoken of.
However, I would say that I think that targets are important. One of the things that we have learned in this process is that, if there is not a target and if it is not measured, it is not visible. The anti-poverty target has been very important and should not be forgotten, even if we want to consider framing that now more in terms of reducing inequalities and looking at what we are doing there to improve our societies overall."@en1
