"I voted for the report by Mr Fisas Ayxela because I am convinced of the importance of combining sport with school education. The aim, which is not confined to a single State, but applies overall to all the Member States of the EU, must be to achieve greater harmonisation and, at the same time, to open up sport for all European citizens, without any kind of discrimination.
Sport is going through a crisis period, particularly as a result of the criminal activities connected with it. It is to be hoped that the European institutions can exercise greater control over the world of sport, given the abuses being seen. In order to tackle such abuse, regulation would, most probably, enable the standard of sports governance to be improved. Therefore, taking action to regulate the activities of sports agents and player transfers, as well as fighting fraud and doping, are all measures that should produce a useful result in these terms. Finally, establishing a ‘European Day of Sports’ and designating an annual ‘European Capital of Sport’ are, in my view, excellent tools for bringing citizens closer to sport."@en1
