lpv:translated text	". We support the principles that underpin the creation of the Cohesion Fund. Like the rapporteur, we do believe that the Maastricht Treaty "did not provide for any economic support and adjustment mechanism in the context of economic and monetary union" and that the Stability and Growth Pact has "effectively restricted government investment." We share the idea that such funds may be of use in environmentally friendly land-use planning. We also believe, however, that the thinking underlying these funds contradicts the neo-liberal thinking behind European integration. It is all very well to "link island, landlocked and peripheral regions with the central regions", but it would be even better not to fragment Europe still further by the systematic privatisation of public services. Seen in this light, the report does not go far enough in its critique and postulates that the financial criteria of the euro and of the Stability Pact can be reconciled with the demands of real regional development. That is why we have abstained – so as not to give succour to such an illusion."@en¹
