lpv:translated text	"Mr President, Commissioner, I am not going to talk to you about the huge numbers that you deal with. We all know that, of the 1.27%, 1.14% is committed and approximately 1% is spent. But we always blame the Member States for this and say that they commit more than they are then able to spend. I am going to ask you a very specific question about a programme that falls within the sole and exclusive competence of the Commission, which is the LIFE programme. The LIFE programme, which was allocated around EUR 100 million last year, committed EUR 20 million of its funds, despite having more than enough projects, which had been carefully evaluated and classified, for the programme to have been able to commit all EUR 100 million. This year, in which you will be assessing this programme – if you have not already done so, because it was due to be assessed any time now – is the Commission going to do the same? What are you going to do to ensure that the Commission allocates 100% of its appropriations and that, furthermore, it keeps some projects in reserve, since these programmes reached the normal level of implementation that you mentioned, of 70% or 80%, which is then spent within the Commission? Commissioner, the Commission alone is responsible for this, not the Members States."@en1
