lpv:translated text	". The sugar sector needs to be reformed in order to make it more sustainable, following the latest reform of the CAP. This reform, however, would cause serious problems for Europe’s farmers, not least the swingeing reduction in the price of sugar. The fact that the Commission’s proposal was drawn up more from the point of view of the interests of the major surplus producing countries than that of the smaller countries which do not even produce enough sugar beet to satisfy consumption, as in the case of Portugal, only serves to remind us that it is not countries like Portugal that are unbalancing the international market. I should accordingly like to point out the possibility, proposed in this report, of Member States continuing to enjoy production-linked subsidies, at least to some extent. This will help prevent the rapid disappearance of the sugar sector in the regions most under threat from this reform. It strikes me, therefore, that the possibility of the restructuring fund and support for those giving up on only part of the quota has been safeguarded. In this way, the sugar industry in some countries, such as Portugal, can move away from the agricultural sector towards sustaining the processing side of the industry. I therefore voted in favour of the Fruteau reports."@en1
