"I voted for this report because the development of a modern and effective infrastructure is of key importance for achieving the Europe 2020 objectives of smart, sustainable and inclusive growth, as well as reducing unemployment. Investment needs in the field of transport, energy and information and communication technology (ICT) infrastructure in Europe are estimated at EUR 1.5 trillion for 2010-2020. While the private sector should finance the main part of these – mostly profitable – investments, the public sector’s role in Europe will be crucial for achieving the above targets. To this aim, the Commission has proposed a ‘Connecting Europe Facility’ (CEF) for the next financial framework in order to accelerate infrastructure development in the fields of transport, energy and ICT networks, with particular emphasis on strategic cross-border parts. The establishment of this new instrument has often been strongly called for by Parliament. However, I draw attention to the fact that this document does not contain any reference to, or solutions for, the more remote regions, particularly the outermost regions. To this end, I suggest a specific initiative in this area, based on the Programme of Options Specifically Relating to Remoteness and Insularity (POSEI)."@en1
