lpv:translated text	"Madam President, clearly it is good to invest in science and research, but when we allocate resources, we need to ensure at the same time that we do not control the research too centrally. This applies both to the content of research and to where it takes place. No European central power can decide where innovations will emerge. That is why applicants for funding in the Member States have to be treated absolutely equally. This means that everyone must have the same opportunities to receive aid and be judged by the same criteria, but this does not necessarily mean that everyone will always receive the same amount. Innovation policy should not be confused with regional policy, because less successful projects must never be favoured at the expense of better ones, even if, statistically, different Member States may receive a different amount of assistance. If we genuinely want innovation, and not something else, we need to support good ideas and high quality research in particular, and not consider regional and social policy, the geographical distribution of research, or levelling out the difference in income between Member States. These things are important too, but they are different issues and only serve to disrupt the real promotion of innovations."@en1
