lpv:translated text	". I consider the ongoing reform of the sugar regime to be unfair on two counts: measures to diversify the economies of countries that are highly dependent on sugar, such as the islands of the Caribbean or Mauritius. 1 - First for the European producers themselves, because there is a risk that the big multinational companies that consume sugar, such as Nestlé, will be the principal beneficiaries of the reform. The smaller producers, on the other hand, could suffer from the 31% reduction in the guaranteed price. 2 - Above all, though, this reform is unfair to the poor sugar-producing countries. Once again, they are the ones who have to pay the price. The figures speak for themselves. European producers can count on a package of EUR 1.5 billion in compensation and EUR 4.2 billion for restructuring the sector, while the ACP countries currently have only the prospect of EUR 40 million. This amount is obscene. In the Committee on Development, we proposed EUR 80 million. Mr Lehideux’s report aims to soften some of the pernicious effects of the reform of the EU’s sugar regime, by proposing: to make the aid complementary to the other financial instruments of EU development policy"@en1
