"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, the measures from the REMIT regulation will be implemented at national level by the national authorities, but at European level primarily by ACER. To this end, the agency must have, or rather ensure, adequate human resources and appropriate complex electronic equipment. However, the necessary prerequisite for both of these is sufficient financial support and I fully agree with the views expressed earlier by Mr Turmes. Commissioner Oettinger has spoken about this as well. I am concerned that the European Commission’s assessment of what resources are necessary to implement the REMIT regulation are quite different from those of ACER itself.
For example, the European Commission has estimated that we will need 15 additional employees, whereas ACER estimated 56. The estimates of the financial resources needed for equipment also differ by more than double. Obviously, I am interested in why there is such a great discrepancy, what the actual financial cost will be, and what will happen in the event of limited funding.
I have to emphasise that I am in favour of ACER being given sufficient means to carry out its operations properly. However, I do not support the establishment of additional discrete units and the expense this entails. Considering that an agency office has already been established in Brussels, I am also interested in the legal basis for this decision. Allow me, finally, to reiterate the following: I am concerned that there will not be enough money for the operations which we all agree should be carried out under the REMIT regulation. We cannot allow this situation to occur. The regulation must be implemented and that means in its entirety."@en1
