"I voted for the resolution amending the interinstitutional agreement of 17 May 2006 on budgetary discipline and sound financial management as regards the multiannual financial framework in order to address the additional financing needs of the ITER project. The draft budget initially envisaged for nuclear research as part of the multiannual financial framework for the 2007-2013 period is inadequate due to the hefty increase in the ITER project’s costs. In the conclusions it made on 12 July 2010, the Council confirmed the project’s increased financial requirements and agreed to limit the European contribution to EUR 6.6 billion (2008 value) for the ITER construction phase up to 2020, which includes EUR 1.4 billion for the 2012-2013 period. The Council’s agreement of November 2010 concerning the redistribution within the multiannual financial framework and the EU’s Seventh Framework Programme for Research to cover the ITER project’s additional financing requirements amounting to EUR 1.3 billion does not conflict with and invalidate the Council’s commitment concerning an overall EU contribution to ITER construction costs of EUR 6.6 billion. Given the importance of the ITER project to the future of the EU’s energy sector, we support the provision of the additional commitment appropriations required for the 2012-2013 period."@en1
