"In adopting our position, we have been guided by the following basic attitudes: 1. Each candidate country must be given a precise and binding accession date. This date must be based upon negotiations with the country concerned, in which account is taken of the major difficulties the candidate country has in making the required adjustments. If the country so wishes, it should be possible to extend the the transition period. 2. Enlargement will demand significant outlay on the part of the EU which must be offset by savings in the agricultural and military fields and in the area of the structural funds. 3. When the candidate countries accede to the EU, they must be treated in the same way as all the other EU Member States. Under no circumstances can we accept a situation in which new Member States are treated as second class members. 4. It is unfortunate that the report has taken no account at all of the position and conditions of women in the adjustment process. 5. Contrary to normal practice, the rapporteur has chosen to include various appendices as a second part of the report itself. This part contains very many neo-liberal assertions and proposals of which we are critical. In adopting our position, we have proceeded only on the basis of the main part of the report."@en1
