The European Research Council, which is to award research grants on the basis of peer reviewed excellence, will therefore be an important step forward, and the EU should further increase its funding.

In 2004, the European Council had endorsed the European Union Drug Strategy (2005 2012), which concentrated on the reduction of both supply and demand and on international cooperation, research and evaluation.

The research results will be presented in September 2004, during a two day European conference during the Netherlands EU Presidency.

The Assembly may also wish to invite intergovernmental and non governmental organizations to consider the Research Agenda as a framework for their research activities related to ageing and implementation of the Madrid Plan.

European leaders must therefore substantially increase research funding when the EU budget is next due for revision in 2008 and 2009.

She expressed the hope that agreement could likewise be reached on a coordinated approach to reporting for all sub items under the training and research agenda item.

Coupled with all this is northern European discontent with the central bankers, specifically with the ECB and the euro.
