".
As we all know, the flexibility instrument, which has a ceiling of EUR 200 million, is intended to allow financing in a given financial year of specifically identified expenditure which could not be financed within the ceilings available for one or more other headings. It is an extremely important mechanism for solving emerging needs.
In the specific case of this year, I also consider it essential that the European Union should mobilise the flexibility instrument to finance the Community’s involvement in the rehabilitation, reconstruction and stabilisation of Iraq, as pledged at the Madrid Ministerial Conference, and also to support the peace consolidation process in the Republic of Ireland, which has been experiencing growing instability.
With regard to the issue of the decentralised agencies, I believe the time has come to find a structural solution to the ever-increasing volume of funding that they need, and to reconcile their funding with the needs of internal policies.
Overall, I voted in favour."@en1
