"The special circumstances of the outermost regions requires the adoption of specific measures, which take due account of their economic and social situation. The constraints and permanent difficulties that such regions face, such as their insularity, remoteness from markets and small size severely hinders their development and justifies measures that can help to reduce the impact of current constraints.
Indeed, this possibility is included in the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union itself, which deals with the special status of the outermost regions in Article 349. Such is the basis for the decision on ‘dock dues’ measures, under which France is authorised, until 1 July 2014, to apply differential rates of the tax known as ‘dock dues’ to certain products manufactured in its four overseas departments. I believe that special attention should be given to the needs and difficulties of the outermost regions, provided this applies to the adoption of specific and appropriate measures for all the outermost regions of the EU that contribute to promoting employment there and in other outermost regions, and better integrating them into the European Union’s internal market. I therefore voted for the document in plenary."@en1
