"Mr President, I have a few specific questions about development policy for the Commission. You have said that we want faster spending because far too much remains unspent at the moment. In practice however this is still not happening. My specific question to you is: what new steps will you be taking to achieve this in your work programme for 2003? You have also said that we must spend better, we want to move towards basic social spending such as education. You have accepted a figure of 35%, you have reached an average of 28%. What specific steps will you be taking to achieve this in your programme for 2003?
Thirdly, in Doha you took on the obligation to table proposals for the reduction of the agricultural subsidies and their conversion into rural subsidies before March 2003. When can we expect these concrete proposals in the area of agriculture, as a supplement to the Fischler package?
Fourthly, you promised to bring forward a supplement to the regulation of the gap between structural aid and emergency aid. This gap, the famous grey zone, is sometimes giving rise to one or two years’ delay. When can we expect to see this specific regulation?
Fifthly, and in conclusion, in the context of migration policy – and Mr Prodi also made reference to this – you said that there is a need to conclude new partnership agreements with developing countries. The specific question is: what initiatives will you be presenting in this area in addition to the Cotonou Treaty that will actually do something about a regulated migration policy which – and let us start with North Africa and a number of the suppliers from the different regions – actually involves the relationship with the developing countries?"@en1
