Europe needs a strong Cohesion Policy after 2013. That was the consensus in over 100 contributions to a public consultation on the issue, Danuta Hübner, Commissioner for Regional Policy, said on 18 June, 2008. She was speaking at a presentation of the Fifth Progress Report on Economic and Social Cohesion. The two-part document comprised a report on the public consultation, and an analytical report on regional economies, which showed that less developed regions continue to show strong growth, underpinned by a shift towards sectors of the future.
