"Mr President, Commissioners, I wish to take up the thrust of the speech by Mrs Corbey, with whom I worked on drawing up a programme under Article 169 of the EC Treaty relating to the Sixth Framework Programme, for Research and Development on diseases prevalent in the countries of the southern hemisphere. She asked you about the difficulty of attracting researchers to this field. You replied that Commissioner Busquin could have given us further answers on the matter. Without wishing to put words into the Commissioner’s mouth, I simply wish to say that there appears to be very little enthusiasm in the private sector for contributing to the amount of appropriations earmarked for the programme I have just referred to, under Article 169. Since you work together, you might perhaps know about this: could you confirm or deny the information that I have in this field concerning the lack of private funds raised to implement this programme to combat Aids, malaria and tuberculosis? Do you also have information about whether States have agreed to this programme and consequently whether public funds are being harnessed? Since the European Parliament voted for this report at first reading, we have not had much news. This question stretches the scope of today’s debate, but it involves the same issues and, this being the case, I would be extremely grateful for any answer you might be able to give me."@en1
