lpv:translated text	". The European Parliament has defended its priorities well at this first-reading stage of the 2008 budget, and I support what the two rapporteurs have achieved, particularly in relation to cohesion and sustainable growth. Let us not forget, however, that because the financial perspective for 2007-2013 was pitched too low it will be a poor annual budget – representing just 0.99% of gross national income. Like my political group, I deplore this situation, for it will not allow us to meet the expectations of all Parliament’s committees or to devote adequate financing to major forward-looking European Union projects such as Galileo. We have agreed, however, to support the main thrust of the information and communications policy: we will thus be able to focus on local media, which play such a significant role in conveying information to all the people of Europe. This is particularly important given the pending question of ratification of the Lisbon Treaty and preparations for the European election in 2009. As the standing rapporteur on information policy in the Budgets Committee, I welcome the possibilities that the new budget affords in this respect."@en1
