"During the final phase of the budget procedure, the Council and the Commission made political statements, especially with a view to involving the European Parliament in the financing of the European Union in the long term. I have two questions about that.
My first question is: how are the Council and the Commission going to give concrete form to this cooperation? Will the European Parliament have a joint deciding role in this? I very much doubt this.
My second question concerns the European tax. In June 2011, the European Commission wants to put forward a proposal for the financing of the European Union for the 2014-2020 period. My question about this is: is an EU tax part of that? If so, that means that the list of possible levies which the European Commission launched in October has been made even longer. If this is about a levy for the financial sector, then any revenue should, in my view, certainly go to Member States, because it was ultimately they who had to save the banks.
Finally, Mr President, I fully support the position taken by the Dutch and British governments in this conflict."@en1
