". I wish to record my support for this report, which contains a sombre assessment of the economic situation facing us and seeks to prioritise responses to that situation. I also regret the failure to date to achieve the targets set by the Lisbon European Council for sustainable growth, full employment and social inclusion. It is vitally urgent that every single Member State takes real steps, now, towards achieving the Lisbon targets. Their performance so far is absolutely unacceptable. I refer to the Commission findings 'Delivering Lisbon' published only last month, showing that Member States' average transposition rate for the 40 directives which should have been transposed by the end of 2003 was only 58.3%. Only 7 out of the 40 directives had been transposed by all Member States! So there can be no doubt that we badly need the Member States to address the demands in this report – particularly those related to the need for more jobs, especially better quality jobs, social cohesion (as a key objective of the European Employment guidelines) and more investment in research and development."@en1
