lpv:translated text	"Mr President, Mr Langen, an outstanding report, you have my respect. Utilising renewable sources of energy is a model example for the development and use of the most modern technologies which, at the same time, contribute to caring for the environment. However, there is also a second aspect. If one looks at those firms in Europe which are particularly involved in this area, it can be seen that these are mainly small and medium-sized companies. And, of course, since these small and medium-sized companies have, with these new technologies, made a considerable contribution to the employment policy of securing jobs, it is also a question of continuing to support them. In contrast to the big energy concerns in which employees are being laid off, by launching this programme and by promoting alternative energy sources, we are also making a contribution as Europeans to increasing the status of employment policy. At the same time, it must, of course, be said that this programme also has a special significance from the point of view of the enlargement of the EU eastwards. Of course, we are also concerned with bringing regenerative, environmentally-friendly energy production to these particular countries in order both to promote the protection of the environment and also of course – this must be added in all honesty – to open up new markets. To that extent, the resources made available for the ALTENER programme are in no way adequate. They must be increased, and the European Council must also be more heavily involved in the export of renewable energy sources. In that way, expertise can be combined and translated more quickly into effective action."@en1
