"The European Parliament adopted its draft EU budget for 2012 today at a level of EUR 147 766 billion in commitment appropriations. Most Members considered that the Europe 2020 strategy is a key priority for next year’s budget, so we guaranteed appropriate funding for the measures and policies which are part of this strategy. In relation to this, we decided amongst other things on an increase in payments for research and innovation, cohesion policy and education. More money was also given to management of migration and refugee flows, among other things.
The European Parliament has always given financial support to policies related to youth, education and mobility, so we increased funds for such programmes as the Lifelong Learning Programme, which finances among other things the Erasmus grants which are so popular with young people, and the Youth in Action Programme. Attention should also be drawn to Parliament’s proposal to increase funding for the Seventh Framework Programme and programmes related to promoting competitiveness and innovation in small and medium-sized enterprises, because after all the competitiveness of European firms is going to have a crucial influence on the EU’s level of economic growth."@en1
