"It is now five minutes to midnight, both literally and figuratively speaking. A key aspect in the debate over direct state aid as a tool of regional development is the threatened application of the British proposal to reduce financial assistance for new members from the European Union’s structural funds for 2007–2013. A reduction in assistance would increase the risk of failure in terms of the desired aims of state aid in the new Member States, as it is often the case that these states simply do not have any funding of their own for these purposes. If they did, we would be approaching state aid, the problems of less advanced regions and the issue of cohesion in a completely different way. In addition, there is a lack of proper analysis and of verifiable studies into the impact of the decisions under consideration. Ladies and gentlemen, the proposed resolution of the Committee on Regional Development and rapporteur Koterec is good, but it will be meaningful only if the level of assistance for new Member States remains unchanged."@en1
