lpv:translated text	"I voted in favour of this report, because cohesion policy continues to prove its relevance as it greatly contributes to the improvement of the socio-economic environment. Furthermore, cohesion policy is aimed at reducing disparities in the levels of development of European regions, facilitates the pursuit of modernisation and sustainable growth, and demonstrates European solidarity. As such, it has proved to be essential to the progress of European integration while establishing synergies between various European policies. Clearly, European regions still face striking economic, social and environmental disparities. Some of these are consequences of the last two enlargements, while others have been accentuated by the direct effects of the global financial and economic crisis. The Member States have embraced new requirements in a positive way and they are making progress in delivering cohesion policy objectives, as evidenced by facts and figures provided in national reports, though with a certain inherent heterogeneity at state and regional levels. Bearing in mind that the European Social Fund (ESF) is a basic tool for combating poverty, social exclusion, unemployment, gender inequalities and social discrimination (against people with disabilities, migrants, older people, etc.), by getting people into jobs, the European Parliament calls on the Commission to strengthen the ESF’s potential and its financial autonomy. Furthermore, we should simplify project management, harmonise and improve procedures and controls, and follow up ongoing projects more effectively."@en1
