lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, I speak to welcome the Connecting Europe Fund, which is proposed for the new financial framework post-2013. Right across Europe, there are still many large infrastructure projects that are needed to boost economic growth. This investment is, of course, needed now more than ever. Indeed, in my own country – Wales – transport infrastructure is still needed, for example, electrification of the railway between London and West Wales, which is so vital for our economy. The UK Government proposes to fund that electrification only as far as Cardiff. I would urge them to fund it at least as far west as Swansea because of its importance to the West Wales economy. But if they are refusing to do that, they should work with others, including the Welsh Government, to ensure that the project goes ahead. They should put in place a Plan B, which should include bidding for Connecting Europe funds when they become available."@en1
