Mr President, I should like to make a couple of points by way of explanation of how I voted on the Members' Statute.
First of all, I believe that our salaries should be the same as the salaries of the members of the national parliaments. I consider myself to be a Dutch politician, not a European official. This is why I voted in favour of Amendment No 8 as well as Amendment No 5.
Secondly, I disagree with a net increase in our salary of at least EUR 2 800 per month. This amount is set to increase even more if a decision is made in favour of imposing European taxes. Such a substantial increase is unacceptable – especially since we hear it stressed on every side how necessary pay restraint is in order to maintain employment."@en1
