"I would like to congratulate the EU and its Member States for continuing to be the biggest donor of development aid, in spite of the crisis. I also welcome the significant contribution made by aid to sustainable development in the fields of health, education, gender equality and biodiversity. I think that it is vital to unlock certain sources of international development finance, for instance, by promoting innovative taxes, reducing significantly the cost of remittances made by migrants, speeding up the process of combining European Union grants and EIB loans, without this leading to cuts in aid spending, and by promoting schemes for improving access to financial services, such as microfinance schemes in developing countries. The schemes targeted at the poor for improving access to financial services can provide exceptional support to smallholder farmers, particularly women, in achieving food security. I voted in favour of this report."@en1
