lpv:spoken text	"I voted in favour of granting discharge to the Commission’s expenditure for 2011. While the error rate for EU funds remains quite high, at 3.9 %, the Commission is focused on implementing preventative and corrective measures that aim to reduce the error rates in payments. It must also be noted that error, which includes mistakes such as filling in a form incorrectly, is not the same as fraud, which is subject to strict legal and recovery measures. Eighty per cent of EU spending is administered at Member State level, therefore I welcome the report’s focus on the shortcomings identified at national level. At this time of cuts to national and regional budgets, increased efforts must be made to focus on the effective spending of EU funding through implementing better control and management at EU and Member State level."@en1
