"I welcome the result of the conciliation on the administrative and operating costs of the European institutions, an area for which I am rapporteur, since the Council has accepted my proposal in its entirety. I would reemphasise that the administrative costs of all the European institutions represent less than 6% of the EU budget. Agreement was reached between the European Parliament and the Council on 18 November, following a conciliation meeting that lasted over 16.5 hours. I would stress that Parliament’s priorities regarding promotion of economic growth and young people were considered. With a view to this, subheading 1a – Competitiveness for growth and employment – has been increased to EUR 50 million above the margin, using the flexibility instrument. In the final draft of the 2012 EU budget, a sum of EUR 129.1 billion has been agreed for payments and a sum of EUR 147.2 billion has been agreed for commitments. The Council adopted the final draft of the 2012 budget unanimously, which is something of a surprise, given that the United Kingdom, Sweden, the Netherlands, Denmark and Finland had voted against at first reading."@en1
