"Mr President, Minister, the EU’s forthcoming financial perspective is part of a whole entity that covers the exhaustive reform of Community policy. Along with the financial perspective, the system of the EU’s own resources is to be reformed, as are several multi-annual programmes, including regional and structural policy. All this will require an immense amount of work and familiarisation with the new arrangements on the part of Parliament, and good levels of cooperation from the different European Union institutions.
Some tough negotiations are to be expected on the financial perspective. It is important that Parliament is not put under any pressure in these talks, although there have already been signs of that. If there is no agreement on the financial perspective by the time of the deadline, the EU budget can be drafted reasonably successfully on the basis of Article 272 of the Treaty. Of course, in that case the measures aimed at improving employment would be delayed.
The incomplete state of the financial perspective must not be an excuse for stonewalling legislative proposals. The Member States have an enormous responsibility here and their disagreements should not be reflected in the day-to-day work of the European Union."@en1
