"Mr President, I would like to begin by saying that we can see that the European Parliament, too, has lived up to its responsibilities in this case. We have passed a budget within the necessary time frame – to that extent all is well. That is the good news.
The other news, which is to say the bad news – and I, personally, am really peeved by this – is that the Member States have more and more new duties for the European Parliament and constantly pass on new functions to us, but then, when it comes to funding, the necessary funds are not handed over along with the responsibilities.
That will be our task for the future – there needs to be a fair negotiation, a fair deal. Additional duties for the European Parliament clearly also mean additional funding, additional financial resources. It is for that reason that I abstained from voting on this motion. It is worth repeating, however, that the European Parliament has lived up to its responsibilities and has passed its budget within the scheduled period."@en1
