PROBLEM: Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, firstly I would like to extend warm thanks to the rapporteur, Mr Brok, for his report.

SOLUTION: Señor Presidente, señor Comisario, señoras y señores, antes que nada quisiera dar las gracias al ponente, el Sr. Brok, por su informe.

PROBLEM: That is to say, if this Parliament commissions a Committee of Experts - and I am not going to repeat what Mr Casaca has said, but I agree with him to a large extent - to analyse a problem, where is the sense in indulging in the medieval tradition of criticising the critics and so on, ad infinitum.

SOLUTION: Es decir, si este Parlamento encarga a un comité de expertos -y no voy a repetir lo que ha dicho el Sr. Casaca, pero coincido bastante con él- el análisis de un problema, qué sentido tiene entrar aquí en una tradición medieval de glosar a los glosadores y así ad infinitum.

PROBLEM: Regarding the first point, we say quite clearly that, in order to take into consideration the requirements of sustainable development which the European Union has endorsed, it is essential that, in some instances, there is state aid to businesses, be it in the form of tax exemptions, special taxation or even direct aid.

SOLUTION:
Respecto al primer punto, afirmamos abiertamente que, para tomar en consideración las necesidades del desarrollo sostenible que suscribe la Unión Europea, es indispensable que en determinados casos existan ayudas estatales a las empresas, ya sea en forma de desgravación fiscal, de un régimen fiscal diferenciado o sencillamente de ayudas directas.
