lpv:translated text	"Mr President, Commissioner, thank you for an excellent report. Despite all the fine speeches, we still do not invest enough in European research and development. The most recent data show that we still lag behind both the United States and Japan, and as for the new competitors, they are catching up with us, as was mentioned a moment ago. Top-level research will not be transformed into innovation and employment with money alone, however; we need to create an innovative climate, which the Commissioner also spoke about. That will be the main feature of a modern industrial society. It will not come about by kicking a ball around, and it will not matter who runs the fastest, but rather who thinks the fastest. It is a matter of our attitude and willingness to embrace a coherent strategy in order to achieve results. When there is no innovative climate, money or strategy, you do not need anything else for failure. Public administration, universities and business should pool their strengths and specialise. Actually, the problem is that the differences between the Member States are enormous, and the speed at which things travel varies greatly. The creation of a single market in researchers would be a goal worth supporting. The best researchers need to be where they can do the best research and innovation work. Several special Union programmes, such as Descartes or Aristoteles, have increased the mobility of researchers, but there remain barriers, which actually drive researchers overseas. European research policy must cover investment in the working conditions of researchers. This way we will establish innovation-based competitiveness. By its own example, Finland has shown that it is possible to build competitiveness founded on research and innovation based on a welfare society."@en1
