lpv:translated text	"I welcomed this document, because corrective measures need to be taken promptly to improve poor project performance in certain priority areas. The document recommends carrying out an in-depth analysis of the implementation problems in areas with specific delays in project selection. In this context it calls on Member States to step up efforts to improve project selection in areas where there are delays, and to accelerate implementation of all selected projects to avoid the risk of failing to achieve the agreed objectives. The report underlines the fact that SMEs play an important innovative role in the economy, and it is therefore necessary to develop this sector through the implementation of the Small Business Act, facilitate SMEs’ access to financing and operating capital, encourage SMEs to become involved in innovative projects, and strengthen their competitiveness and potential for greater employment. I believe that the effective selection and implementation of projects in some areas is hampered by the lack of relevant preconditions such as simpler application procedures at national level, clear national priorities for certain areas of intervention, timely transposition of EU laws and consolidated institutional and administrative capacity, as well as by excessive red tape at national level. The document therefore calls on Member States and regions to facilitate policy implementation by tackling these challenges, above all by adapting the legal framework in the field of state aid, public procurement and environmental rules, and pursuing institutional reforms."@en1
