lpv:translated text	"Mr President, the Council notes with satisfaction that Parliament has confirmed the agreement that we reached at the conciliation meeting on 18 November this year. In conjunction with the outcome of the second reading in the Council, we are happy that Parliament’s second reading can be deemed to represent a common text from the two parts of the budgetary authority in accordance with the new Article 314 of the Treaty of Lisbon. The Council accepts this common text and the President of the European Parliament can thus declare the budget finally approved. However, I would like to point out that once you, Mr President, have declared the budget finally approved, the Council believes that it should be signed by both parties since the new Treaty states that both the Council and Parliament are responsible for it. The Council regrets the fact that this position has not been taken into account. Having said that, we are not questioning in any way whatsoever what has been agreed. Nonetheless, we hope that next year’s budgetary procedure will allow sufficient time to deal with these matters. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank once again the Chair of the Committee on Budgets, Mr Lamassoure, and the three rapporteurs, Mr Surján, Mr Maňka and Mrs Haug, for their constructive attitude throughout the budgetary procedure, which also demonstrates the very good cooperation that we have enjoyed in this work. I would like to finish with a personal reflection. Being President-in-Office of the Council is probably the most distinguished office that I will ever hold. It has been a great honour for me to serve Europe in this way and I would like to express my thanks for this opportunity. Thank you very much indeed."@en1
