Maria do Céu Patrão Neves  (PPE ),

The Global Monitoring for Environment and Security (GMES) programme is one of the European Union’s flagship space initiatives. This resolution, for which I voted, stresses that the uncertainty about the future of the GMES and its funding is extremely damaging to the development and commercialisation of the services and applications of this programme, which will, it is hoped, generate economic growth and well-being for the European public.
