"We welcome the fact that linguistic issues are now regarded by the EP as a ‘fundamental principle’ in its priorities for the Community budget for 2010:
‘Cannot stress enough the fundamental principle that all Members should be equally provided with full and quality services allowing them to work and express themselves and to receive documents in their native language …’;
‘Considers that 2010 should be a year when the utmost effort must be made so that Members of all nationalities and languages are treated equally in terms of their possibility to carry out their duties and all political activity incumbent upon them in their own language if they so choose’;
‘stresses, …, the principle of democratic legitimacy through all its composite Members and their right to full multilingualism; therefore considers that this budget can and should be used to work towards this goal …’
However, we cannot forget that the proposals presented on the budget by the MEPs from the Portuguese Communist Party – which called for all the official languages of the EU to be available at meetings (both those held within the Community institutions and external meetings held as part of Parliament’s work) – have successively been rejected over the years."@en1
