"Mr President, the effectiveness of development aid is of the utmost importance and, as the rapporteur mentions, there are questions that go much further than issues relating to the management, decentralised or not, of Commission delegations. One is the issue of the need for consistency between the European Union’s sectoral policies and stated development aid objectives. Another is ownership of aid, which is so necessary and requires the country, and its authorities, institutions and social organisations to be significantly involved in coming up with policies and implementing them. In this regard, the European Union should genuinely support and not dictate; should capacitate and not impose; should respect the peculiarities, choices and sovereign will of developing countries; and should not lose sight of the importance of cooperation among developing countries, which should be encouraged.
Development aid should promote full development and encourage developing countries to make full use of their domestic potential and not perpetuate their dependence, which means that a substantial part of aid now returns to its countries of origin in the form
of the acquisition of goods and services."@en1
