lpv:spoken text	"I welcome this report on broadband in Europe, as widespread coverage of high-quality, high-speed broadband networks across the EU is essential to build up Europe’s competitiveness, research and innovation potential and to foster social and territorial cohesion. Broadband underpins new information and communication technologies, such as cloud computing or the Internet of Things, which will help determine the future of industrial innovation. We need consistent research investment in fixed and mobile ICTs in Europe. The European territory should be fully covered by 2013 and, in order to ensure that the Digital Agenda target of universal access at speeds of no less than 30 Mbps by 2020 is met, intermediate benchmarks should be set for earlier dates. The radio spectrum has to be managed in such a way as to allow low frequency bands to provide wide wireless coverage in rural areas, islands and mountains. Those with reduced mobility, disabilities and those living and doing business in isolated areas would enjoy new opportunities which only a combination of public and private investment strategies can bring about. The Digital Agenda has immense potential for growth, enhanced productivity and inclusion, as well as more integrated information in fields such as education, health and public administration."@en1
