"Mr President, Mr Dominik, Mr Lewandowski, it has been a difficult year for both Francesca Balzani and José Manuel Fernandes. It has also been a difficult year for the parliamentary Delegation to the Budget Conciliation Committee, led by Alain Lamassoure. The Presidency-in-Office of the Council may be happy, and with reason: it saved its own match point in the tennis game that the 2012 budget negotiations turned into, particularly during conciliation night, with the inclusion of amending budget No 6/2011 and the financial implications of the ITER project. However, I do not see many other reasons to be pleased. The unwritten rules of budget negotiation have been changed for the second time. Before the Treaty of Lisbon came into force, a level was set for commitment appropriations in the budget conciliation, and then we negotiated the necessary payment appropriations. Now, the Council unilaterally sets the level of the payment appropriations and the level of the commitment appropriations is negotiated afterwards. This undermines the European Commission’s estimates and presents Parliament with a . On this occasion, Parliament will accept this because of the economic emergency we are experiencing, which makes agreement essential, even if the agreement is a poor one. However, Mr Dominik, this way of negotiating does not bode well at all for the forthcoming negotiations on the multiannual financial framework."@en1
