"The Olsson report and the Commission propose gradually extending the present common agricultural policy to the new Member States in the course of the ten years following their accession, with consideration being given at the same time to a new CAP, applicable to everyone but, for financial and technical reasons, unable to be put into effect before 2006.
It would appear difficult to do anything else for the time being. Current EU rules cannot be applied to everyone immediately, for that would be too much of a burden financially. Nor is a two-speed CAP acceptable on a long-term basis, for that would be unacceptable politically. At the same time, however, a situation should preferably be avoided in which inevitable transitional measures are the pretext for ending up with a huge and labyrinthine administrative and financial system spread right across the continent.
Let us therefore state right now the future principles of a new CAP: a concern for quality, respect for the countryside, support for multifunctionality and the maintenance of a proper social balance in rural environments; in short, the defence of the European agricultural model, undertaken through border protection and therefore funded by the consumer rather than through an endlessly expanding Community budget funded by the taxpayer."@en1
