"Mr President, I would like to thank Sidonia in particular, our rapporteur, for handling very difficult negotiations excellently on behalf of Parliament. That work needs to be recognised, as does that of the Council.
I speak as the agriculture rapporteur, and I need the word agriculture to echo through this Chamber because we have concerns, not just about figures but also procedure. From my perspective, this new procedure needs fine-tuning. We could and should do our work better. I say that to myself, but I say it also to the Council and the Commission, and I think we need to examine and review how we have worked in the past.
We have made some gains in agriculture. They are very small, but my concerns are for the future. I would like the Commission to talk about the massive cut of upwards of USD 800 million that there appears to be in rural development funding. I hope that that will not actually come to pass.
I am concerned about the budget post-2013 and the possibility that agriculture could become a sector where people raid funds for other policies unless there is agreement on an adequate budget for all of the policies of the European Union."@en1
