"The European Parliament’s consent to enter into an agreement on the promotion, use and provision of the GALILEO and GPS satellite-based navigation systems signifies an important step in strengthening cooperation between the EU and the United States. It coincides with the recent launch into orbit, on Friday 21 October, of the first pair of satellites for Europe’s global navigation satellite system. The entire system is planned to become fully operational in 2014. Taking into account the fact that the GPS and GALILEO systems are fully compatible with each other, cooperation in this sphere will bring about an increase in the number of satellites visible from any position on the Earth’s surface, which in turn, will improve access to navigation signals for users all over the world. Moreover, when the agreement comes into force it will enable satellite navigation users to access a wide range of higher-level services, which will be of huge importance not only for persons using navigation systems in their cars, but it will also ensure more efficient management of road transport and the operation of rescue services, as well as guaranteeing safer banking transactions and more reliable electricity supplies. For these reasons, too, I supported this report."@en1
