PROBLEM: The financial amount finally allocated to the programme is also a considerable improvement on the Council' s proposal at second reading which we found completely unacceptable and we have made quite a lot of progress there.

PROBLEM: Since it is the declared aim of all politicians throughout Europe to reduce unemployment, then one must pose the critical question as to whether the policy employed is the right one or whether it would not be more appropriate to boost the competitiveness of the regions by appropriate measures such as increased support for research and development, improvements in infrastructure and raising the level of training.

SOLUTION: Una vez que en toda Europa el objetivo declarado de todos los políticos es la reducción del desempleo hay que plantear la pregunta crítica acerca de si la política que se ha aplicado es la correcta o si no será más eficaz reforzar la competitividad de las regiones mediante medidas pertinentes como el aumento de la financiación a la investigación y al desarrollo, la mejora de la infraestructura o la elevación del nivel educativo.

PROBLEM: He is absolutely right to say that a Union which talks about conflict prevention should be looking at what it can do in these particular areas to ensure that there is not the sort of conflict in the future which has caused so much devastation in the Balkans and which has cost us a great deal more than we might have had to spend otherwise, had we taken more pre-emptive measures if those had been possible.

SOLUTION:
Tiene toda la razón al afirmar que una Unión que habla de prevención de conflictos tendría que ver qué puede hacer en estas áreas concretas para garantizar que en el futuro no haya el tipo de conflicto que tanta devastación ha causado en los Balcanes y que nos ha costado muchísimo más de lo que habríamos podido gastar de otro modo, si hubiéramos tomado más medidas preventivas de haber sido posible.
