"Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, the vote will be taken on the Kirilov report in the next few weeks and I welcome this, as the need is urgent. The public and our elected representatives have been waiting nearly a year now for tangible and permanent measures from the cohesion policy in response to the crisis; national and local actors have spent a year calling for greater flexibility and adaptability in the awarding of European funds. Today, with Parliament reflecting on new measures aimed at greater transparency in the use of the Cohesion Fund, we need, more than ever, to succeed in our move to simplify these requirements. The Kirilov report is a first step towards this simplification. It must call for others, because the credibility and visibility of European action in day-to-day life are at stake. This report is also proof of Europe’s solidarity, that in these times of doubt about our unity, it can provide those members who need them with measures adapted to their situation. In these dark and overcast times, the Kirilov report may be a breath of fresh air. I hope that this report will be only a first step."@en1
