"Madam President, I welcome this Commission proposal. It has innovative elements and marries sufficient ambition with the necessary realism. It is an excellent starting point to which Parliament has already contributed. I hope that the Community method will become the method of governance once and for all. Therefore, all policies, all European projects, should be included in the Union budget. Projects like ITER or Galileo, for example, or funds like the European Development Fund (EDF) should be included in this budget. In order for the next multiannual financial framework (MFF) to be effective and resilient, it is important that transparency, simplicity and flexibility be the watchwords.
I also hope that each year’s budget surplus will be as small as possible and that it will be added to the next year’s budget, instead of acting as a credit for the Member States. The Europe 2020 strategy is the great guide for this financial framework. In order for its goals to be achieved, the budget needs to have sufficient funding for its own added value to be maximised.
Finally, I welcome the proposals on own resources, not least the financial transactions tax, and consider them positive. I hope that others will be debated, specifically, for example, the tax on emissions licences."@en1
