"I voted for Ms Berès’s resolution as it is vitally important for the emergence of European economic governance to go hand in hand with greater democratic scrutiny. In order to deal with the major changes that will have to take place if it is to emerge from the crisis, the EU must ensure the strong democratic legitimacy of its decisions. This legitimacy can only be guaranteed with the European Parliament’s support and involvement in the annual drafting of the EU’s main economic policy guidelines. In particular, it is essential for Parliament to participate in the European Semester procedure, during which each of the 27 draft national budgets is assessed by the European Commission. Following this procedure, Parliament should have the chance to amend the macro-economic policy guidelines proposed to Member States. This democratic development also requires enhanced dialogue with the national parliaments and the social partners in order to support European economic policy coherence and guarantee that the EU 2020 objectives are taken into account. Finally, it is vital that the Treaties be revised only with the agreement and, where necessary, the involvement, of Parliament."@en1
