lpv:translated text	"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, the agreement that has been reached is not the one that we would have hoped for, despite the fact that Parliament fought with dignity for a more satisfactory budget. If progress has been made – and it has – it is only thanks to Parliament, its negotiating team and the rapporteur. The Council must assume full responsibility before Europeans for a short-sighted and miserly outlook, which is concerned only with balancing the books of the national budgets and not with making Europe great and powerful. We are satisfied, however, because the agreement provides a number of positive solutions and confirms that the programmes will start on 1 January 2007. The thorny issue of reforming the financing of the budget remains unresolved. We need a thorough reform of the structure and procedures, which is divorced from the mercantile ‘give and take’ approach and inspired by genuine pro-European ideas. No public institution has lasted for long without having a direct link with its citizens through taxation."@en1
