"Madam President, I would like to start by thanking the rapporteurs for their work and their rational approach. The European Court of Auditors has found a whole series of deficiencies in the running of individual bodies and agencies, just as in previous years.
With regard to the Commission, we see a recurring problem in the sharing of management in cooperation with Member State audit bodies. In view of the fact that there are two areas with an alarming error rate, we must rapidly adopt a regime that would enable the Commission to assess the individual problems of Member States and react to them in time.
The large number of errors in the management of individual agencies is of concern. We are therefore pleased that the rapporteur decided to postpone the granting of discharge for four of them. We should think about how to achieve a reduction in operating costs, for example, by sharing services between agencies according to geographical proximity or according to policy area.
With regard to the European Parliament, we support the search for savings. For example, it is possible to reduce expenditure on awards, as the rapporteur has already said here, or reduce expenditure on the presentation of Parliament, such as the expenditure on the Parliamentarium or the House of European History.
I would like to end by saying that until the EU budget as a whole receives a positive statement of assurance from the Court of Auditors, the European Conservatives and Reformists Group has decided not to support a grant of discharge for any part of the EU budget, and, on the contrary, has decided to support a postponement in the cases proposed by the rapporteur."@en1
