". Mr President, I would like to start by complimenting the rapporteurs on their diligent work. The position taken by the Group of the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe is that the Commission should be responsible for the implementation of the budget and that the Council and Parliament should not try to micro-manage. We place our confidence in the Commission and we do not wish to interfere too much with the details. Control will come afterwards. For the ALDE Group, the main issue so far has been that we adhere to an earlier provision of the Interinstitutional Agreement, that Member States are required to submit a discharge statement every year. Up until now, that has proved to be almost a dead letter and we find that most regrettable. We will insist that it again be included in the Financial Regulation and, this time, it will be a key point for the ALDE Group. Another point of debate: do we need to introduce a tolerable risk of error? The ALDE Group is of the opinion that we do not. We need to stick to the standards and, if the implementation of the budget becomes too complicated and too expensive to check, then we should not introduce it."@en1
