lpv:translated text	"Madam President, I would like to thank the rapporteurs for this report, which is technically detailed. We will give our full support as regards expenditure, so much so that, for my part, I have sent a letter signed jointly by myself, as Vice-Chairman of the Committee on Budgets, and the Chairman of the Committee, supporting the Commission’s proposal on the IDA programme as regards raising the maximum funding level. What is the reason for this? We feel that 10% is only a symbolic gesture whereas raising the figure to 30% is a tangible action, which will show people that Europe is close to the citizens rather than far away, particularly where TENs are concerned. As the rapporteur for this subject, however, I would like to speak about TENs in general. I feel that raising the maximum level is important for trans-European networks in general. We started with 10%, we raised the figure to 20% at first reading and now we are talking about 30%: this is significant. In addition to this, however, I feel that we need to amend the report on TENs so that it provides the possibility of introducing a subsidised system, with regard to all the networks included in the TENs in all sectors, including telecommunications and including IDA, in order to give the States the option of doing all this on the ground where they have problems with local authorities. I believe this is something that could streamline the procedure and provide an increasingly smooth channel for funding to reach the territory. In addition, I must mention what is known as rewarding, which we already see as a comparative document and which should, in the future, reveal the good States and the bad States and, above all, make it possible to intervene where it is necessary to use the funds in question. Lastly, I would state that we certainly do not support what is known as the quick shortlist, in that it runs counter to the procedures of the Treaties. That area is not the responsibility of the Commission but the responsibility of the Council and Ecofin, on the one hand, and the European Parliament, on the other."@en1
