If I may start at the end, that was also the Commission’s proposal in the letter which President Barroso sent to Parliament and the Council.
It is important that we recognise the need for the right balance between physical infrastructure on the one hand and intellectual infrastructure and other steps on the other, to stimulate innovation in regions which are today cohesion regions and less developed than the average in the European Union. That is crucial.
I recently attended a conference in Poland with my colleague Mrs Hübner. It was a good conference, in which we were both able to explain to the audience how important it is to approach matters from both sides. At the end of the day, we have to be aware that if these recommendations are taken on board, it is in the hands of the Member States. We have to understand how crucial it is that we balance this kind of support in practice.
I am also fully aware that, in terms of differing levels of development, countries’ needs are not identical. So it is crucially important that this aspect is seriously taken into account and that this shift in attention is also taken into account."@en1
