lpv:translated text	"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, first let me pay tribute to the presidency of the Council and to its cooperative approach to this year’s budget. Naturally I also pay tribute to our rapporteurs and to the Commission for a budget that, in my view, is going in the right direction. Nonetheless, I have three comments to make. The first concerns the reform. In this context I must say that I am most disappointed, we as a Parliament are most disappointed with the various episodes of these past days. As the President, Mrs Schreyer, will know, I am not addressing her at this moment but the Commission in general, including its Vice-President Mr Kinnock. I think the kind of communication and exchanges of view we have seen over the past few days between the Commission and Parliament is not likely to help us take the decision we need to take this evening to unfreeze the budget items on reform, which is a pity. I want to draw the attention of Members and in particular of the rapporteur to two points. It seems to me that yesterday the General Affairs Council buried the ‘European political parties’ heading. That means EUR 7 million are likely to be unusable for lack of a legal basis. I would ask the rapporteur whether we could vote differently on Thursday. Furthermore, in regard to the budget heading for north-south cooperation in combating drugs, the Commission has not really followed up that question. A report that should have been drawn up is not there. Here again we have entered money under this heading, which has no . So I would ask you whether we could change the vote on Thursday and delete this heading."@en1
