lpv:translated text	"Mr President, while it is true that much can be done to contain the costs of the European institutions, including Parliament, we are bound to reiterate here our concerns about genuine respect for the principle of multilingualism in this House. There are obvious shortcomings in the interpretation and translation services, which jeopardise the ability of Members to express themselves in their own language under various circumstances. For example, amendments to this report and others were only accepted in English in the Committee on Budgets. This therefore jeopardises equal treatment for Members, regardless of their nationality. Against this backdrop, the cuts made to the interpretation services can only make the situation worse. Moreover, it is unacceptable that these cuts could threaten workers essential to the functioning of this House. It is unacceptable that this will exacerbate job insecurity amongst those working in interpretation and translation, jeopardising their jobs and rights."@en1
