lpv:translated text	"Thank you, Mr President. While talking about the scheme of generalised tariff preferences, I would like to address the question of the rules of origin and inter-regional cumulation with regards to the textile sector. It is necessary to apply the principle of origin which has been in force until now and refrain from inter-regional cumulation. Inter-regional cumulation would simplify the application of the rules of origin, however it would be the more competitive countries, China for example, which would gain any real benefit from this, not the least developed countries. The abolition of the rules of origin would open the EU market to another 30 developing countries, including competitive India, while countries affected by the tsunami, for example Sri Lanka, would be unable to compete realistically. Those EU Member States which have transferred their textile manufacturing to Asian states would benefit, while the textile industry of the EU's southern and new Member States would suffer, unemployment would increase with the collapse of the textile sector and this would not help implement the Lisbon goals. When talking of global cumulation, the concept of the EU common market would on the whole become incomprehensible. I would like to stress that the Committee on International Trade has rejected the proposal on inter-regional and global cumulation. Thank you."@en1
