"Madam President, I speak on behalf of the S&D Group but most Members will recognise the need for extra resources after the Lisbon Treaty. However, there are a number of questions on the timing and the funding of these proposals. Colleagues have raised some of those issues.
There are also other questions. For example, if we are to have extra staff resources, on what evidence is this based? Were figures just plucked from the air? Or, if it was based on evidence, I think we should have been given that evidence.
Also, how will the extra staff for the secretariat be allocated? I think we should have been given that information as well.
I also think that, if we accept the extra assistance allowance of EURÂ 1 500 per month, we should also look at other costs, costs for extra office space which may be required. In fact, we should be given the global costs for that.
This is going to be a difficult decision for Members tomorrow. It is always controversial when you are asked to give yourselves resources. If we had been given all the information I and my colleagues have been asking for, the decision tomorrow might have been easier for Members to take."@en1
