"Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, the support given by Parliament’s Committee on Agriculture and Rural Development to the proposals contained in the Salinas García report is proof of, firstly, the rapporteur’s excellent work – and I add my own congratulations – and, secondly the very positive spirit of compromise displayed by MEPs from almost all of the political groups.
I particularly welcome Parliament’s recommendations on crisis management and on strengthening producer organisations. I welcome the adoption of my proposal to establish a transitional period aimed at ensuring the continued viability of tomato cultivation in some Member States, in particular my country, Portugal. I hope the Commission will take this on board.
I am disappointed, however, that it was not possible to go further on other equally important issues, such as greater flexibility in the management of financial resources earmarked for operational programmes and positive discrimination, which should have been given to the Member States in which those programmes are particularly poorly organised.
Your speech at the start of this debate, Commissioner, made me fear that the aspect of Parliament’s political support for the proposals has not been correctly interpreted, but I trust that common sense and a spirit of compromise will ultimately prevail in the Council and the Commission."@en1
