"As a result of the vote on this report, France should be eligible to benefit from structural funds for 10 or so additional regions. These funds, constituting the second round of EU expenditure, have hitherto been intended only for the richest and poorest regions of the Union, under the cohesion objective for the latter and the competitiveness objective for the former. This injustice should be remedied through the creation of a new intermediate category enabling regions with per capita GDP between 75% and 90% of the EU average also to benefit from these funds. It is the result of a long battle, in which the French MEPs of the Group of the European People’s Party (Christian Democrats) exerted leadership and which made us strongly oppose the author of the report. I voted in favour of this text, as I think that an effective EU cohesion policy cannot ignore such a large part of its territory."@en1
