lpv:translated text	"Madam President, today’s debate is not directly concerned with European solidarity, the cohesion policy or the sharing out of EU funds. In reality, however, it is not too far removed from debates on the solidarity principle or on the factors driving economic development, in particular those factors that promote or hinder the existence of functioning economies in the Member States. Decisions on State aid granted at regional level fall entirely within the jurisdiction of the European Commission. At the same time, however, Parliament cannot merely be a passive observer of developments in this field, given that it is working actively on a legislative package on cohesion policy. Particular emphasis should therefore be placed on a point made in the report, namely that we expect the Commission to delay its adoption of a position until the new Financial Perspective is agreed on, and until the budget for cohesion policy is adopted. Regulations on levels of State aid should, if they are formulated correctly, heighten the impact of structural interventions rather than curtailing economic freedoms, by which I also mean business activity. State aid should not become an alternative means of artificially prohibiting such measures as the relocation of businesses. Economic activities in the Member States should also be targeted at creating an environment that is conducive to investment in the EU, and at establishing favourable operating conditions that enable forward planning for businesses, rather than at imposing artificial prohibitions that disrupt relations between EU Member States. The consultation of regional and local authorities on the criteria for identifying aid-recipient regions is also absolutely essential."@en1
