lpv:translated text	"Mr President, the main problem with intellectual property policy, both at EU level and in most of the Member States, is that it is almost completely based on what industry lobbyists are claiming, which is founded on very little proper research. There are very many reports on intellectual property that have been compiled by the lobbyists basically taking one big number out of thin air, multiplying it by another big number and saying: ‘Wow, we lose this amount of money’ (or jobs, or whatever). One prime example of such a report is the terrorism report, which was actually mentioned in the Commission’s communication on this observatory. So I am very concerned about this observatory, but many people – including people from the OHIM – have said ‘No, the observatory will start collecting proper academic research’. If that actually is the case, I think it would be extremely valuable, because there is a lot of very good academic research showing that the issue of intellectual property and intellectual property infringements is not necessarily as simple as the lobbyists are saying, far from it. To give the proposal the benefit of the doubt – despite my misgivings about it – hopefully the observatory can be something good if it really focuses on proper academic research. For that reason, I will be abstaining rather than voting against this proposal."@en1
