". – I shall answer the last part of the question first. The real dilemma is that everything is lacking and everything is needed. The response from our partner countries in the ACP group has, to a large extent, been dominated by quite a high priority on infrastructure. We will continue road building – big roads, small roads – but education and health are the next two items on the list of priorities. We will be continuing a high-intensity effort on education.
Regarding corruption and the new instrument in the Cotonou Agreement – Article 97 – I can inform Parliament that it will be used. Within a short time all this will come out in the first case of the new Article 97 being actively used. This is not to say that we have a powerful and guaranteed effective instrument but it does mean that everything is out in the open and that we are addressing this problem. It also means that we want to do this by means of a cooperative effort and not just as a sort of punishment.
The lack of capacity to do things right is also part of why things are done wrongly. A broad-based effort is necessary. We have to stick with it and we are going to use it."@en1
