lpv:translated text	". Budget support is an effective tool for development cooperation, but it also has pitfalls. Those Member States in receipt of support must thus make an adequate contribution of their own when it comes to combating poverty, macro-economic management, managing government finances and governance before they can receive budgetary support. In reality, there are enormous differences between the recipient countries. Budget support must be inextricably bound up with a strong political dialogue. The leading role of the national parliaments of the recipient countries, civil society organisations and local authorities is crucial. They are, after all, best placed to identify priority sectors, prepare Country Strategy Papers and monitor budget allocations. In order to strengthen parliamentary supervision, national parliaments must consult with civil society. The report demands a system of information exchange between civil society and the general public with a view to following up on budget support. Budget support, just like programmed aid, should be treated as a transitional instrument and should not hamper efforts to strengthen countries’ capacities to raise own resources, such as taxes, in order to become independent from third country donation. Budget support may even be cut back in certain cases (in the case of emerging or oil and mineral-rich economies)."@en1
