lpv:translated text	". There are various reasons why the Deva report has not received my support. First of all, the proposal to abolish all subsidies in the EU is one-sided. I am all in favour of removing barriers for products from poor countries, but there are also good reasons for retaining regional production or environmental subsidies. The impact on the developing countries is, although essential, not the only consideration. Accordingly, it would make sense for the WTO to make allowance in the trade rules for the extent to which the consumption of a specific product affects nature, starting with the production process and including transport to the country of consumption. A second point of criticism concerns the implementation of ethical investment. The report is making a step in the wrong direction. It concerns itself with the internal organisation of the management where it prescribes the establishment of an internal committee and the sections of the company to which this is accountable. It would be preferable to look into strategies which would allow ethical investment to be introduced on a larger scale. There is particular room for improvement in measurability and reporting. Finally, the plea to review the common policy on public health is inappropriate since the health policy does not fall within the Community's remit."@en1
