"At a time when the Commission, and indeed this Parliament, ought to be searching for, and bringing forward, proposals on how to save money, we are offered this report which suggests the completion of the Galileo satellite navigation system at an additional cost of EUR 1.9 billion in the next Multiannual Financial Framework. Let us not forget that this is against a backdrop where the Galileo satellite project started off with a budget of EUR 7.7 billion and is now projected to cost EUR 22.6 billion. To such a proposal, I categorically say no. Current budget lines already in place for this project are easily sufficient to bring about its completion, yet – true to form – the suggestion is to spend even more. I know that if I speak to my constituents, they will give little support to the current spending on Galileo, let alone an increase. Again, I urge MEPs and the Commission to be realistic and to be cautious with the money we have and with which we should aim to bring maximum benefit to our constituents."@en1
