lpv:translated text	"Madam President, as far as the budget is concerned, it is becoming increasingly essential that we bring the Treaty up to date with the procedures. The integration of the financial perspectives into the Treaty will thereby be a medium-term financial plan which will be agreed between Parliament and the Council. This integration will create much more stability, as well as the legal certainty which Mr Colom i Naval, the permanent rapporteur for the financial perspectives, spoke of this morning. Let us remember that the financial perspectives procedure has brought budgetary stability to the European Union. Nevertheless, Parliament believes that the integration of the financial perspectives into the Treaty will mean that, as well as stability, there will be sufficient flexibility to allow for a review of those perspectives when necessary. If we do not do this, we will run the risk of confusing the financial perspectives with the annual budgets. This confusion will lead to conflict year after year. With regard to the classification of expenditure, which this House has also long wanted to see, we must find an institutional point of balance which combines the European Parliament’s requests for a greater degree of codecision in budgetary matters with the defence of the privileged nature of certain expenditure which forms the basis of the European Union’s economic and social cohesion. The European Parliament wants the Community budget to be financed by own resources rather than by contributions from the Member States. The fiscal and budgetary autonomy of the European Union rests on this, as does, to a certain extent, its political autonomy. However, let us remember that, if what we want is an autonomous financial system for the Union, we must at the same time create a fair tax system. Progressiveness cannot only be based on expenditure. Sooner or later we will have to be sufficiently progressive in terms of own resources as a basis for this fair tax system."@en1
