lpv:spoken text	"I voted in favour of this draft amending budget proposal. The proposal put forward by the Commission manages to raise part of the funds necessary this year for the ITER project without the need to ask Member States for further contributions, meaning that this proposal is budget-neutral. I support the breakdown of the extra EUR 1.3 billion needed for ITER in 2012 and 2013 put forward. ITER is a long-term investment in not just European but global energy security and brings on board China and India as participants in trying to develop the long-term hope of controlled thermonuclear fusion using seawater-based deuterium as an energy source. It is the same process as the sun and is 100% clean, but requires huge investment by the EU. We all hope and pray for a breakthrough in this key area of research. R&D spending is one area of EU spending which brings clear value added by pan-European cooperation and funding."@en1
