"I abstained from the final vote on the regulation on EU financing for development, through the DCI/BAM instrument, in order to comply with the voting compromise made within the Group of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats in the European Parliament between those who were in favour and those who were against this legislative instrument.
However, having been part of the Conciliation Committee that negotiated with the Council, I believe that this regulation is the best that it could be. It is not the case, as those who oppose the regulation say, that Parliament will have fewer powers than the Council in monitoring its application by the Commission. I do not believe that any national parliament goes so far in monitoring national programmes of aid to developing countries. Neither Parliament nor the Council can replace the Commission in exercising the powers of execution granted to it by the Treaties. This is a simple case of respect for the separation of powers."@en1
