lpv:translated text	"Mr President, when preparing its proposal for reform, the European Commission did not include amongst the people it consulted those of us in this Parliament who deal with the issues of cooperation and development. Therefore, on its own initiative, Parliament’s Committee on Development and Cooperation decided to present the report which we are currently discussing. In this report we advocate the idea that the policy of cooperation for a fairer, more balanced and stable world is not some sort of secondary issue, but that it should be a real priority in European Union policy and that, furthermore, the efforts which we make in pursuit of this objective must be considered to be a substantial part of our project. Furthermore, however, in Mrs Sauquillo’s report we draw attention to certain measures within the reforms proposed by the Commission, which we consider to be mistaken. For example, they propose an institutional structure in which the body responsible for formulating cooperation policy and the body responsible for implementing that policy are not one and the same. Our Committee shared the view of the rapporteur that the Commissioner for Development should both formulate and implement policy in this area, although these should be coordinated with the other policies dealing with external activities. What seems to us even more serious in the Commission’s proposal is the territorial separation, which is maintained. It does not seem reasonable that the Commissioner for Development should deal almost exclusively with the ACP countries while relations with Asia, Latin America and the Mediterranean region – which of course are very much cooperation and development issues – should remain in the hands of those responsible for external relations."@en1
