"− The subject and scale of this report are useful for tackling innumerable relevant issues. However, as usual, there are many areas where it is lacking, incongruous or even contradictory. There is talk of consistency in development cooperation policy, but it lacks rigorous and profound analysis of the patent inconsistencies in EU policy. The report stresses some positive aspects, which we value: the need to develop the capacities of the public, of organisations and of society in general; the need for technical cooperation, in addition to support instruments; the reference – albeit without due critical consideration – to ‘illegitimate debt’, to unfair trade and to capital flight; the advocating of significantly increased Official Development Assistance (ODA) in the next multiannual financial framework (MFF); and others. We have doubts about other aspects or even directly oppose them: so-called ‘innovative’ approaches like ‘cash on delivery’; the inherent aspects of ‘output-based aid’ and ‘differentiation’, rewarding those countries that are ‘performing well’; and the ‘market-orientated solutions’ insistently mentioned throughout the report. The rapporteur does not hide his view of development aid as something to be harnessed, with a view to promoting the exporting of neoliberal policies and market economy models to developing countries."@en1
