"The report on demographic change addresses the crucial issue of the gradual ageing of the European population. It sets out a concrete proposal that is based on the conviction that the trend can be reversed in the long term and benefited from in the short term. The European Union cannot walk away from the responsibility of dealing with this phenomenon, since it will set the tone for the future economic and political structure of united Europe. The wide range of effects that it has on social dynamics suggests the use of the structural policy in order to take positive action. The report puts forward six priority areas for ensuring that the rights of all generations are protected, be they children, young people, women or the elderly. The idea of using the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and the European Social Fund (ESF) must be taken into consideration during the discussion on the legislative package on the new cohesion policy. The subject we are looking at is entirely coherent with the objective of promoting social cohesion, which is among the three priorities of the EU 2020 strategy. These reasons led me to lend my support to the excellent work carried out by Ms Westphal, both in committee and in this House."@en1
