"Research is a vital area for the long-term success of the European Union as regards innovation and competitiveness. I accordingly voted in favour of this report on guidelines for future European Union policy to support research.
It will only be possible to create the European Research Area by increasing the EU’s financial support for research, in the context of improved coordination between European, national and regional research policies. For this reason, I wholeheartedly approve of the proposal to double the budget for the Seventh Framework Programme.
The EU needs 700 000 new adequately skilled researchers by 2010 if the target of 3% of GDP investment in technological research and development is to be reached. To achieve this objective, it is essential to make Europe more attractive for researchers and scientists, to stir up fresh enthusiasm for science among young people, to foster the participation of women and to promote scientific careers and the mobility of researchers.
Lastly, I wish to emphasise that those Member States that are eligible for the Structural Funds should devote a significant proportion of these resources to eliminating their disadvantages in the field of research."@en1
