lpv:translated text	"The Vander Taelen report announces the European Parliament's intention to promote the European film industry and reinforce it against the strength in the market of its American competition. This concern also meets with the approval of the Group of Socialist MEPs, who have therefore voted in favour of the report, although they have substantial reservations about the statements made under item 8. This is an attempt, detached from the debate just beginning on revision of the 'television without frontiers' directive, to force the amendment of one point in a particular direction, one highly dubious from the point of view of content and law. Cultural, and therefore broadcasting, sovereignty belongs to the Member States alone. Item 8 would in practice mean massive interference in the programming autonomy of both public-service and private-sector broadcasters. It would, over and above that, offend against the authority of national public-service broadcasting organisations enshrined in the Protocol to the Treaty of Amsterdam. The success, or lack of it, of European audio-visual productions is not determined by extending protectionist measures, but by the marketability and competitiveness of such productions. There is no doubt that a structural weakness is revealed by the fact that it is exceptional for European audio-visual works to cross the borders of their country of origin. Consideration should therefore be given to systems of incentives for the distribution of non-national European films. The restrictions described in Item 8 are, however, the wrong way to go about it."@en1
