"Ladies and gentlemen, because we have finished this part of the vote, I, too, would like to express very sincere thanks and congratulations to our rapporteurs, Mr Surján and Mr Maňka – and earlier we had the report of Mr Böge – as well as to all the people who have worked on the budget. It was an exceptionally difficult budget. In addition, I would like to congratulate our fellow Members, and also all of Parliament, because we have made this decision together. It is, truly, a great result. Congratulations to all! Now I have to read out some very important points which are related to the extraordinary way in which we adopted the budget. It is very important because we have moved from the Treaty of Nice to the Treaty of Lisbon. It was a very difficult move. We began under the Treaty of Nice, and we are ending under the Treaty of Lisbon, and this is why this statement is necessary. You have to listen to this statement. ‘The budgetary procedure for 2010 has been exceptional. It started under Article 272 of the EC Treaty, but its last stage was conducted when the Treaty of Lisbon entered into force. On 18 November 2009, Parliament, Council and the Commission therefore agreed to continue the budgetary procedure under the EC Treaty, but also reached an agreement covering the outcome of the budgetary procedure, including Parliament’s vote, which took place in full respect of the Multiannual Financial Framework. The President of the Council has just confirmed the agreement of the Council on the budget we have just voted. This means that Parliament and Council have now reached an agreement on a joint text, respecting the aim and purpose of Article 314. I thus note that the budgetary procedure, that was initiated under Article 272 of the Treaty establishing the European Community and continued under Article 314 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, has been completed in accordance with Article 314 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union and the Multiannual Financial Framework. The budgetary procedure can thus be deemed to be completed and the budget is declared definitively adopted.’ This is a very important statement. Next time, there will not be such complications, because the Treaty of Lisbon will be in force. Now I will officially sign the document. Ladies and gentlemen, please allow me to add that the Chair of the Committee on Budgets is Mr Lamassoure, who has put a great deal of work into this. I would also like to mention his name as someone who has been very active in this matter."@en1
