Cohesion policy is a key policy area for the future of the European Union. Cohesion policy is structural and is intended to contribute to reducing disparities between development levels in the various European regions, and it should pay particular attention to disadvantaged regions and those with special status, such as the outermost regions.
The territorial dimension is one of the new features of the Treaty of Lisbon and there is a need to find a more adequate response to contributing to regional development from now on, particularly as regards cohesion policy for the period 2014-2020. It is in this context that I voted for the Commission proposal of creating an intermediate category or regions covering European regions whose gross domestic product (GDP) is between 75% and 90% of the European average, which will replace the current system of phasing in and phasing out, and which will not compromise the other categories for Objectives 1, 2 and 3. I believe cohesion policy exists for all European regions and I advocate its being the main priority for this policy in the next multiannual financial framework (MFF)."@en1
