"It is well known that we profoundly disagree with the Financial Perspective 2007-2013, which represented a significant cut in the EU budget. Moreover, it established the notorious ‘Lisbon strategy’ and external policy as its priorities, at the expense of the Structural and Cohesion Funds. It is clear today that it was inadequate for tackling the economic, social and environmental situation facing the EU, where inequality has increased, and where there is also, therefore, an even greater need for cohesion.
With the entry into force of the Treaty of Lisbon, it was established that ‘the Council… shall adopt a regulation laying down the Multiannual Financial Framework [(MFF)]… after obtaining the consent of the European Parliament’, and that the three institutions must work together to find a solution with a view to the MFF’s adoption. This new framework is the reason justifying the rapporteur’s position rejecting the Council’s draft regulation – which represents nothing more than the regulation for the agreement concluded in 2006 – because he believes that Parliament’s new powers are not safeguarded. For our part, we would reiterate that the absolute priority of the MFF should be responding to the serious social problems created by the economic and social crisis, with a significant increase in the Union budget for supporting economic and social cohesion."@en1
