"Article 208 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union enshrines the reduction and, in the long term, the eradication of poverty, as defined in the European Consensus on Development, as the primary objective of EU development policy, and that the Union shall take account of the objectives of development cooperation in the policies that it implements which are likely to affect developing countries. The EU’s efforts towards Policy Coherence for Development (PCD) hammer home the point that PCD is not only a legal obligation, but that designing accountable, transparent, human-rights-based, and inclusive policies is a chance for the EU to establish equal and sustainable partnerships with developing countries that go beyond development cooperation. It also stresses that PCD-aligned policies give governments and societies of developing countries the chance, and the responsibility, to generate successes on their own. This is the EU’s duty as regards PCD, which is why I am voting in favour."@en1
