"Mr President, I would like to join those of my colleagues who have already thanked our two rapporteurs, Mr Färm and Mr Stenmarck, for their very helpful contributions to our debates this morning. On the Commission, firstly, I would like to see us having an ongoing monitoring of the budget to follow up the work of our colleague Mr Costa Neves in last year's budget. I think this is particularly relevant as we have now changed the way in which the work programme of the Commission is formulated so as to have more input from our specialised committees. I fully support that particular point.
Secondly, I would like to join with what our colleagues and in particular Mr Titley have said so far about foreign affairs expenditure. I guess it is the big spenders from the Foreign Affairs Committee who are seeing all these commitments being made and we in the Budgets Committee who are querying where the money is coming from. It seems to me that we need a priority-setting, forward-thinking agenda, which is why we are supporting the idea of a study, so that we in the Budgets Committee should have an idea where the money is coming from.
Lastly, we would like to know if the reform of the institutions has continued. I would like to ask the Commissioner when we can expect a final decision on the early retirement scheme.
Insofar as the Parliament budget is concerned, we support those colleagues who have criticised the Administration for trying to suppress the EP-rom study. We need a proper resource management discussion in this Parliament, and, particularly, we would like to see a coherent, effective and politically balanced Administration. The reason for that comment, Mr Dell'Alba, was precisely because there had been
. There is an imbalance in the Administration and I would like to be sure that the Administration is seen from the outside as being effective and politically balanced.
Secondly, insofar as the political groups are concerned, to ensure effective control of the Administration, we would like to see them strengthened. Lastly, in terms of enlargement, we would like to be sure that in interpretation we have controlled multilingualism; that in translation, we are looking at the aspects of teleworking; and, above all, in the buildings, that we do not take on any commitments to construct new buildings until we know they are absolutely essential."@en1
