lpv:translated text	"Thank you, Madam President. When the European Parliament through the report of Frédérique Ries sets out specific measures for implementing the programme of the common environmental and health policy for the period 2004-2010, we may be aware that these are areas in which the European Union is becoming a world leader. After all this is not just a free trade zone, it is also a political, economic and even social project. The fight against social exclusion is one of its key elements. Following enlargement, environmental and health policies have acquired new frameworks. The European Union of 25 members is registering an increase in regional and social differences, something that is directly reflected in people’s quality of health. Counter to expectations, 55 million people are living in poverty. The most vulnerable groups are older people living alone, single mothers and the unemployed. The profiles of these groups, which are at risk as a result of exclusion and therefore also in terms of health, clearly illustrate how societies have developed, how production methods have changed and how economies work. The new Member States are not a homogeneous whole, but certain indicators are similar, since they are the result of similar conditions in the transition period. There is an especially large gulf between the old and new Member States regarding the extent of funds invested in health care. I trust that by means of the common strategy it will gradually be possible to reverse the negative trends we are seeing at present. Like the environment, the health of the population is an interdepartmental issue. Less development means less health. Timely investments in health reduce the costs to the economy as a whole."@en1
