"Madam President, I, too, would first of all like to congratulate my colleague, Cristian Preda, for this very timely report, in view of the high-level forum due to take place in Busan. I personally think that the EU must adopt an ambitious position in order to increase development aid effectiveness. I welcome highlighting the need to increase transparency, accountability and coordination. At the same time, I must emphasise how important the decentralisation processes are in partner countries, as mentioned in paragraph 15.
It is vital for local actors to be involved in order to ensure that aid is effective and sustainable. For example, a Health Matrix Network project which invested in the capacity of the local communities has helped achieve a 50% reduction in the infant mortality rate in Tanzania over a period of nine years.
Finally, I should point out the need to apply fully the EU code of conduct on the division of labour in development policy."@en1
