"Madam President, Mr Barroso has spoken quite often about the extraordinary times we live in, the important issues faced and the leadership the EU has to show in the financial market sector. However, Mr Barroso, there is one thing I should like to ask you about – and you mention it in the paper you presented to us – namely the European Union’s own financial resources. You do not say where they should come from. In this connection, there is one question that I asked you about at the hearing we had with the Greens/EFA Group last week. Unfortunately I did not get an answer from you; hopefully I will now. My question is: what about a financial transaction tax? Even Mr Sarkozy has now proposed this, and Mr Steinmeier and others are talking about it now. Belgium and France already have legal instruments to implement it, so why not talk and bring pressure to bear with a view to a Commission proposal on a financial transaction tax?"@en1
