"Mr President, today we are debating the EU budget for 2012. Naturally, the Dutch Party for Freedom (PVV) is vehemently opposed to the proposed increase of nearly 5%. All sorts of flagship initiatives pass in review, and the result is that even more money is pumped into all kinds of pointless European agencies that just cost us taxpayers’ money. The most important detail in the budget, however, is the additional EUR 1.3 billion that is required for the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) project. Money for this project has to be taken from other headings in the current multiannual budget, and that means that what we are dealing with here is a revision of that budget. As a consequence, every Member State has a veto over the 2012 budget. That is fantastic news, as it means that the Dutch Government can exercise its right to only approve the budget if it complies with the absolute no rises rule that my Dutch Government advocates. I call on the Netherlands and like-minded European Member States to go on and make full use of that right."@en1
