lpv:translated text	". This report commits three cardinal sins. Firstly, it unreservedly accepts the limit on the clearly insufficient spending under the current financial framework. Secondly, it claims that the Commission is presenting proposals to institutionalise a policy for redistributing budgetary appropriations, recommending greater flexibility and providing for transfers between sectors and budget lines, to the detriment of budgetary discipline. Lastly, the report deliberately exaggerates its criticism of low implementation rates for the Structural Funds, a criticism which is all the more unfair because it fails to take account either of the uncertainties facing any financial framework in its initial phase of implementation or of the conditions imposed as a result of the implementation of the Stability Pact. With regard to the latter sin, two objectives are clear: to use the low implementation rate as an argument for reducing Community spending on the cohesion countries – with the same thing happening with cooperation and development policies – in the face of enlargement and whilst satisfying the interests of the well-off donor countries; and denouncing “reforms” in the regulations of the Structural Funds, taking advantage of the interim review of Agenda 2000. For these reasons, we could not vote for this report."@en1
