I would like to emphasise that, as a public institution, the European Parliament must strive to demonstrate as much openness and transparency as possible.
I also believe, particularly in view of the current economic situation, that Parliament must review its expenditure and identify savings and ways to increase efficiency. Parliament ought to have a more in-depth debate on these issues, which is why I would like to provide more room for the discharge debate. I also have a positive view of the principle that the European Parliament should have a common air miles system to provide the benefit of cheaper air travel.
Finally, I do not believe it is wrong for Parliament to award cultural prizes. However, I am highly critical of Parliament’s Prize for Journalism, and I do not believe that it is appropriate for Parliament to award prizes to journalists whose task it is to critically examine the European Parliament. I therefore believe that this prize should be abolished."@en1
