lpv:translated text	". Around 15% of the population of the EU – over 57 million people – live close to the poverty line. In Portugal alone, more than two million people – over 20% of the population – live close to the poverty line. While nothing is done to alleviate severe income inequality and major unemployment, which affects over 14 million people, the risks of poverty and social exclusion will increase, and will increase still further with enlargement to include ten countries in which the average income is lower than the Community average. It is, therefore, regrettable that the Community programme of measures to combat and prevent exclusion receives just EUR 75 million in funding for the 2002-2006 period, in other words, an average of EUR 15 million per year for the current 15 Member States. Worse still, the adjustment made to take account of the needs of enlargement is only EUR 10 million, or EUR 2 million per year. Parliament’s complicity in this state of affairs is regrettable, given that fighting social exclusion and poverty ought to be one of our key priorities, even bearing in mind the limited objectives of the current programme."@en1
