"Madam President, the rapporteur very aptly described the most important premise of the Communication. She sees in it a new stimulus for the principle behind the Lisbon Agenda, which many Europeans still view as the European Union’s ‘trademark’. The Communication simply recommends that the European Union should continue to favour research and innovation as vital stimuli for change in contemporary society, something it has declared to be a priority for many years, and that it should above all view economic development as a decisive instrument for stimulating the job market.
The ten new Member States staunchly support the creation of increasingly more attractive operating conditions for modern research centres in Europe. There are clearly certain concerns, justified by the fact that there are still visible legal and administrative barriers for scientists from Central and Eastern Europe wanting to participate in this research. The fact that the Committee on Industry, Research and Energy has accepted the amendments tabled to the report is therefore all the more welcome. These amendments were tabled with the scientists from that region in mind, especially those at the start of their careers.
It should also be emphasised that the committee has shown significant interest in the problems faced by small and medium-sized enterprises. In the rapporteur’s report, we even find a proposal to take particular account of the specific situation of micro enterprises and small enterprises. The scientific world views this as an appropriate framework for putting pressure on the European Commission to create an information database which will provide a record of the current state of scientific research. It will also be a kind of guarantee, bearing in mind the increasing expectations of the scientific world, that intellectual property rights will be protected.
This kind of new economic policy should create new opportunities for flexible choice of economic instruments that ensure, in accordance with the message emerging from our debate, continued growth in employment."@en1
