This report marks the start of the debate on the 2009 budget procedure with regard to the budget of the European Parliament and other institutions, but not including that of the European Commission, which is by far the largest budget.
Among other aspects that we could highlight, consideration must be given to the guidelines now proposed on staff policy. This is because in recent years we have witnessed constant pressure to reduce staff costs, with the use of forms of precarious contracting, such as contracting via the provision of outside services, particularly through temporary employment agencies, to the detriment of permanent employment contracts and the rights of these workers. We must of course categorically reject this approach.
Another recurring aspect is the need to ensure the diversity and availability of all the official and working languages of the EU. During the 2008 budget procedure, a small appropriation was placed in the reserve ‘to encourage the administration to give priority to more efficient linguistic support for Members during official meetings’. However, we do not know what measures were actually taken in this respect, particularly as situations continue to arise in which this right is not respected, for example in the EU-ACP Joint Parliamentary Assemblies."@en1
