"In this resolution, the European Parliament enters into areas that it is for the parliaments of the Member States to attend to in order to achieve the agreed European targets concerning increased growth and employment. The basis of the Lisbon Strategy is that the Member States should implement what has been agreed on.
The Lisbon Strategy must not be used as an argument for constantly demanding increased appropriations to the EU’s budget. The June List believes instead that the respective Member States’ budgets must make provision for the Lisbon Strategy. Paragraph 3 of the resolution states that the EU’s budget must be increased if the objectives of the Lisbon Strategy are to be achieved. For that reason, we are choosing to vote against the resolution.
The resolution contains many positive proposals but is based on the EU having a financial perspective that we do not support. Responsibility for implementing the Lisbon Strategy lies with the Member States, which is why it is important for their contributions to the EU not to be increased. Rather, they should have scope themselves for taking care of what is required by the Lisbon Strategy.
We have therefore voted against the motion for a resolution tabled by the Group of the European People’s Party (Christian Democrats) and European Democrats, the Socialist Group in the European Parliament and the Group of the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe."@en1
