lpv:translated text	"As the revised Lisbon Strategy makes clear, Community-wide rules underpinning a uniform understanding and implementation of technical standardisation constitute very important tools for creating and sustaining the conditions for policy implementation, and hence ensuring the competitiveness and constant sustainable development of the Community. We can regard technical standardisation as a binding component for development in many fields, such as research, industry, the economy and health care, and above all in the common interest, as it serves everyone, even if that is not immediately obvious. We only realise how important standards are when something does not work properly. I remember how the new Member States recently had to rebuild their technical systems. In Slovakia that meant revising more than 25 000 technical standards, scrapping almost half of them and incorporating 15 000 national standards into the remainder, all of which required a lot of investment. We must underline the great contribution to this made by the internationally recognised and long-established Slovak Standards Institute. We now face the considerable task of improving the financing for European standardisation in support of the competitiveness of European industry in particular, and of European policy on global competition. For this reason this decision is of the utmost importance. To construct, coordinate and further refine a complex and extensive mechanism of technical standards which functions dynamically requires clear, rational and adequate financial support. In conclusion I would like to draw attention to the praiseworthy and constructive efforts of Mrs Pleštinska, who has succeeded in building a consensus over this important issue."@en1
