"Today, we are refusing to grant the Secretary-General of the Council discharge in respect of the implementation of the Council budget for the financial year 2009. The decision has been made necessary in view of the difficulties encountered in the discharge procedures for the financial years 2007-2009. The purpose of Parliament having the right to grant discharge is to submit the entire budget of the European Union to Parliamentary control, without exception. This Parliament has expressed its concerns about the behaviour of the Council in several resolutions. Despite some progress towards democratic accountability having been made, in particular, through the receipt of a letter from the Secretary-General of the Council containing a series of documents relating to the discharge procedure for the financial year 2009, we cannot yet grant discharge while information required to make the decision has still not been received."@en1
