Research situated between applied and basic research now has a lower profile but remains significant.

I moreover believe that this dichotomy between basic research and applied research is a thing of the past.

This advisory group will keep us up to date on the state of research and on future research requirements.

But we are not in favour of the inclusion of military research or research in the defence area.

This is not current research.

This is a check to be done alongside the mathematical check on the figures.

I shall check what has happened at once.

Perhaps you could get your services to check this.

We shall address this problem and check all the translations.

You can check it in the verbatim report of proceedings.

This investigation is under way.

We therefore need a proper investigation into the matter.

A great many proposals have been made which warrant investigation.

Naturally, an investigation is necessary because the accusations are very serious.

19924 8 billion, but an amount which is, nonetheless, worthy of investigation.

The test is implementation.

Yes, there should be a test ban.

We are prepared to face that test.

But a critical test is more than a shopping list.

However, our consistency is now being put to the test.

I agree with your analysis.

In short, an opportunity cost analysis.

However, this analysis goes even further.

Today's speeches reveal a precise, but ruthless analysis.

That clearly is a farce in anyone 's analysis.

In this connection, we must check up on the matter of parliamentary administration.

It is easy to check up on, because electronic voting took place that day.

Now we have a follow - up to check that those points have been implemented.

This is a check to be done alongside the mathematical check on the figures.

I shall check what has happened at once.

We should be interested in checking systems and not checking individuals.

From this point of view, checking is essential.

The checking and assessment mechanisms have been decidedly inadequate.

There is an alternative to this proposal in the form of drug checking.

I spent one and a half days checking her figures against mine, and they are incorrect.

These issues certainly merit closer examination.

Let us not pre - empt that examination.

We therefore propose postponing examination of this report.

The results of this examination are not yet ready.

Yesterday morning, I was opposed to urgent examination of this document.

This revision would appear to be overdue.

There is a formal revision provision in the original directive.

22478 It is the first victim of not having a revision.

Today we are dealing with the necessary revision of this directive.

There has already been reference here tonight to the need for revision.

We also need to search our own hearts regarding public tenders.

Agreed test methods are also necessary to launch a comprehensive exercise in the search for substitutes.

The course of justice is being obstructed in the search for certain missing persons.

Nor will it improve the legal security of persons fleeing persecution and in search of protection.

It is also important that there is success in the search for equality between the sexes.

28265 We do not want more supervision, we want no supervision.

We need stronger banking supervision.

Financial supervision could be exercised by professional auditors.

We can be proud of monopolies and mergers supervision.

It is necessary to improve supervision of financial conglomerates.

The audit findings here are also very important.

A new independent audit system service must be set up.

However, a good audit is not in itself a miracle cure.

Parliament wanted financial inspection and audit functions to be separated.

27234 The eco - management and audit scheme will be an incentive.

32019 Surveillance of fisheries is not everything, but without surveillance everything else is pointless.

Ecosystem surveillance promises to be a multidisciplinary activity.

Obviously, there is active surveillance of the situation.

22138 We also need to step up surveillance and transparency.

Susceptible animals have been identified and are under active surveillance.

The survey does provide us with some answers.

This survey must be followed up in a practical way by implementing measures appropriate to each situation.

Control of the arms trade and improved media control are essential in this.

We should simply stay in control of this development -- it should not be in control of us.

We need efficient control.

I refer to coordination and control.

This situation creates various control limits.

Such an exploration would only be possible under certain conditions.

This is at least something which is worthy of exploration.

They are no substitute for rigorous regular inspection.

Inspection is on its way, at long last.

Common standards and inspection agreements boost safety levels.

Their inspection was carried out under its auspices.

But on closer inspection it is nevertheless correct.

Screening is not the same as negotiation, screening is merely an adjustment process.

The screening process has therefore been completed with all candidates.

The second point is about scrutiny mechanisms.

4914 The same applies to parliamentary scrutiny.

In particular the need for parliamentary scrutiny and democratic accountability.

Even the national parliaments are barely able to exercise scrutiny.

Similarly notable by their absence are any provisions on parliamentary scrutiny.

I take a more relaxed view.

A global view is required.

I completely share that view.

I support the latter view.

I share your point of view.

We are better viewing it as a highway that connects them.
