"I voted for the report on Parliament’s estimates of revenue and expenditure for the financial year 2013. In paragraph 8, Parliament defends the principle of multilingualism and highlights the unique nature of the European Parliament in terms of interpretation and translation requirements. In paragraph 16, Parliament insists that funding should only be granted to those parties which rigorously uphold the founding principles of the EU and the Charter of Fundamental Rights. Similarly, paragraph 11 highlights Parliament’s willingness to help maintain budgetary discipline by freezing all budget lines relating to travel and not indexing any of the MEPs’ individual allowances until the end of the legislature. I voted against paragraph 2 of the resolution which states that Parliament’s places of work should be limited to a single seat for MEPs and officials since they cannot be limited without amending the EU Treaties accordingly. I voted against Amendment 2, which considers unnecessary the information campaign for the 2014 elections, which the Bureau includes in its estimates. I also voted against Amendment 8, which calls for the European Prize for Journalism to be abolished, and against Amendments 9 and 6, which call for an end to the funding for the House of European History and for the project to be cancelled."@en1
