lpv:translated text	". Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, firstly, I would like to give my sincere thanks to Mr Vaughan, the main rapporteur, and also to my fellow rapporteurs. We have worked very closely together and shared detailed information in the attempt to identify sensible solutions which would allow us to take the first step towards producing estimates of revenue and expenditure. I believe that it is very much worth mentioning that the increase in funding for the European Parliament is below the rate of inflation and that we will be carrying out an intensive and systematic evaluation of Parliament’s spending between now and the autumn, in order to identify further potential for cutting costs. In this context, we want to make it very clear to the public that while we are aware that the European Parliament needs a sensible level of resources to be able to work effectively, we also want to exploit every opportunity to introduce savings. From my perspective, this also involves making careful use of money where we take measures relating to the building. In this respect, it is also important to mention that we have already made some initial savings and that we have been able to bring about a significant reduction in some excessive rents. As far as bringing everything together on one site is concerned, I would like to suggest that we calculate the costs and the consequences of moving to one site, rather than just quoting the fictitious costs resulting from the journeys caused by being based at different sites. This will be necessary in order to carry out a useful analysis, since there are officials who do not have to travel at all, because they have no direct connection with Parliament and its work. Under these circumstances, moving to one site would not bring any benefits. We simply need to analyse the situation carefully and impartially. I would like to thank my fellow Members once again, because I believe that we are submitting good estimates."@en1
