lpv:translated text	". Madam President, this is a very complex question and the answer can only be given once dialogue has been held between the worlds of politics and sport. We are keen to see order restored and balance re-established in sport and to ensure that sport as fair play and true competition regains its prestige. This will not be easy as this is an enormous task, but I believe that, with the help of politicians and through public assistance and pressure, we can achieve these goals. It is also very clear that we can act on sport only in its social and educational aspects. When sport becomes a purely business matter, there can be no exceptions. Sport will, at this point, be dealt with like any other business activity. That is plain and clear. It is only when sport fulfils an important social function that we can give it a helping hand in order to restore order. Sport as a business will be regarded and dealt with like any other business."@en1
