lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, I am glad to hear the tone taken in the debate today. I was worried this morning that there would be too much backslapping at how well we have all done. We have worked hard, we certainly have, and I am glad colleagues share my concern at this curate’s egg of a reform. There are advances and it is useful to remember that we have made major steps forward for new entrants, ended slipper farming, increased coupled support for hill farming and support for small abattoirs, short supply chains, cooperation and animal health and welfare. There have been advances, especially in rural development, although almost all of them have been voluntary and poorly funded. But this is not the reform it could have been and there are too many issues that have been parked. There is a real risk that the ‘commonʼ in the common agricultural policy will be less and less common depending upon the actions of the Member States and local authorities. Also, there are major question marks over the proportionality of penalties and the impact of delegated acts, so this is very far from being over. I would echo Mr Nicholson’s point that while it took a Herculean effort to get here, this is very much not the end of this story; many of these issues will come back to haunt us because we have not been as brave as I feel we needed to be. On balance I can accept the package, but this is far from over."@en1
