lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, I fully support this report. It is an excellent report and I would like to thank Michael Cramer for the excellent work he has done on it. As we know, transport is the backbone of the European economy. Without it the tourism industry could not exist, manufacturers could not get their goods to market and life would be impossible. Having said that, many challenges still lie ahead in terms of better alignment of research and innovation with transport policy. It is crucial that we reduce the impact of transport on climate change, while at the same time contributing to improving the health of EU citizens and their quality of life. We must not look negatively on the need to reduce the impact of transport on our environment, but rather see it as an opportunity, because jobs can be created in the R&D sector while at the same time we are meeting our environmental targets. I particularly welcome the fact that this report calls for better coordination and mobility of research in the EU, thus achieving a greater return on Member States’ research budgets and avoiding duplication."@en1
