lpv:spoken text	"I strongly support the decisions taken at Sintra. They constitute a significant step towards establishing an effective European Security and Defence Policy. The creation of the interim structures and the plans that are now being put into place to provide the military capacity for achieving EU policy objectives are positive steps in the right direction. The recognition that the 60 000 strong military force will be involved in both peacemaking and peacekeeping is also appropriate. However, while all these developments are indeed welcome, I would like to address a matter which I have raised in this House on previous occasions. I am anxious to know how effective the EU’s policy planning and early warning unit has been. While Commissioner Patten’s statement later this evening on the unfolding tragedy in Mozambique will be opportune, I would like to know if the policy planning and early warning unit provided advance information. Would the High Representative be prepared to say to what extent this unit, which has been strongly supported by the committee of which I and Mr Titley are members, assisted in providing early information, analysis and an indication of the policy planning options open to yourselves? I would also like to support Mr Titley’s comments on an effective role for the Parliament in this whole area. If we are to realise our ambitions in the field of foreign policy, then effective anticipation and preparation for all sorts of crises, particularly humanitarian ones, are essential prerequisites."@en1
