lpv:translated text	"My initial reaction is rather positive, as I believe that the Commission proposals are along the right lines. We cannot ask for better coordination of the Member States’ economic policies without also calling for an improvement in the coordination process for economic, social and sustainable development policies at European Union level. I believe that all processes relating to the BGEP, namely the Luxembourg, Cardiff, Cologne, Lisbon and Stockholm processes, and any others, for that matter, need to be rationalised. The experts are beginning to lose the thread, and the citizens are completely lost. Rationalisation is therefore required, provided, of course, that the European Parliament and the national parliaments are involved in the said processes. If I have understood Mr Solbes correctly, in future we will have coordination for the medium term, with a complete review every three years. Three years is a long time, however, for a Parliament with a five-year mandate and a Commission that also has a life expectancy of five years. Some legislatures would, therefore, only hold one major debate on the broad guidelines. In addition to this, three years is a very long time in economic terms. Three years ago, Mr President, the world stock markets were all bullish. Two years ago, however, the bubble burst, causing substantial collateral damage. Therefore, and this is my question, can you envisage not adapting the guidelines to the development of the economy and of life in society?"@en1
