lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, I am disappointed with that response. The European Parliament held a hearing just a few weeks ago with representatives from the Minister's country as well as from my own. The point was made very strongly there by representatives of the radio industry that digital radio is one sector of media communication that is not developing as quickly and as effectively as it might do, and the feeling was that political backing was lacking. I would like to think that the Council, were they to receive a proposal from the Commission, would behave emphatically in support of digital radio. A problem has also arisen that various elements of the digital radio spectrum are now being allocated across Europe often quite freely, at no charge at all. Yet that same spectrum would, of course, be very profitable if were used for telephone communications. I wonder if can we be assured that the Council of Ministers will look very carefully at this and be sure that it does not pose any threat to the development of digital radio in Europe."@en1
