"The Moderate delegation has today voted in favour of the resolution on the closure of undertakings after receiving EU financial aid. We Moderates find it gratifying that, with this resolution, the European Parliament is attending to the harmful consequences that often arise in connection with the EU’s Structural Funds. We believe that the Structural Funds lead to a large and unwieldy merry-go-round of subsidy which, when it is used to aid undertakings, causes unemployment to be transferred between the EU Member States and a distortion of competition for individual undertakings. What, instead, is required as a basis for creating more jobs are deregulation, lower taxes and fewer barriers to trade. If the European Union is to have any possibility of achieving the Lisbon objective, the Structural Funds’ aid activities should cease as soon as possible. ***"@en1
