"Mr President, I am not intending with my speech to express any sort of disrespect to the autonomy of the Valencian Country. In any case, I believe that its autonomy is insufficient considering the real need of this area of the Catalan Countries.
Having said this, I believe that it is necessary to introduce a requirement for a common European vision regarding territorial planning and environment protection. It is my assumption that real estate speculators take advantage of the feeble nature of Valencian autonomy. This is a breeding ground for large-scale corruption. A consensus is necessary in the EU in order to avoid policies that threaten rational European planning and the environment. States, regions and autonomous communities should play a role in the definition of this consensus. The failure to move towards this goal will cause areas such as the Valencian Country and the Balearic Islands, where construction is the main economic activity, to see their whole territories jeopardised. It is already a major anomaly that the building sector is the main profitable activity in our part of the world. Not putting an end to this will mean that certain business groups will become richer, bringing about massive social, environmental and economic troubles in the near future."@en1
