lpv:translated text	"With this Health Check, the Commission has taken a good – if very modest – step towards a slightly less unfair agricultural policy. I would urge my fellow Members not to support Mr Goepel’s report, as it dilutes the Commission proposals on a number of very important points, and in my view the most important point is the imposition, at long last, of cautious limits on the size of the subsidies it is possible to receive. It is difficult to explain to the European public why, for example, the Prince of Monaco or large multinationals such as Heineken and Nestlé receive hundreds of thousands of euros in income support in the form of agricultural subsidies merely because they own some land, whilst real farmers often struggle to make ends meet. Income support in agriculture is intended to give farmers a decent existence and not to line the pockets of multinationals and large landowners."@en1
