lpv:translated text	"− I welcomed this document because the economic well-being of the European Union relies on sustainable creativity and innovation. Measures for their effective protection are therefore essential for ensuring the EU’s future prosperity. Intellectual property rights are vital business assets that help to ensure that innovators and creators get a fair return for their work and that their investment in research and new ideas is protected. We need a sound, harmonised and progressive approach to intellectual property rights. The constant rise in infringements of intellectual property rights constitutes a genuine threat not only to the Union economy, but often also to the health and safety of Union consumers. Effective, immediate and coordinated actions at national, European and global levels are therefore needed to successfully combat this phenomenon. Given the need to defend intellectual property rights, the Council called on the Commission to launch a European Observatory on Counterfeiting and Piracy. The Observatory should become the central resource for gathering, monitoring and reporting information and data related to all intellectual property rights infringements. It should be used as a platform for cooperation between representatives from national authorities and stakeholders to exchange ideas and expertise on best practices and to make recommendations to policy-makers for joint enforcement strategies."@en1
