lpv:translated text	"Mr Chairman, we are often accused here in Parliament, and sometimes justifiably so, of spending taxpayers’ money too freely. In discussing this motion, we can demonstrate that we also have some aptitude for effecting savings and making matters more efficient. The European Audiovisual Observatory prepares statistics for businesses in the audiovisual industry, work which Eurostat and the various national offices for statistics also attend to, so that there is a certain degree of overlap between these organisations’ work and that of the Observatory. This cannot be rational or expedient, and we should like it to be investigated whether closer cooperation between Eurostat and the various national offices might, in the long term, render the Observatory’s work superfluous. Even if the Community’s contribution only constitutes 12% of the Observatory’s budget, it is money all the same, and we believe that there is money to be saved. But, when the main content of this motion is “only” about reducing the period of support from 5 to 3 years, then there is also time to investigate whether Eurostat and the national offices of statistics can cover the need we have for statistics and statistical information."@en1
