"Madam President, the Court of Auditors has recently come before us with fine reports on the closure of accounts for 2010. Subsequently, rapporteur Macovei gave excellent comments on those reports by the Court. Unfortunately, it seems like a lot has gone wrong, especially as regards the agencies. Today, we will be voting on a large number of amendments to those reports. As usual, the Group of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists & Democrats in the European Parliament is against more transparency, against greater control of expenditure and against calling the agencies to order. The delegation of the Dutch D66 party also seems to have joined in with this. Namely, it has tabled a number of amendments in order to undo the transparency and drop as soon as possible the excellent conclusions and recommendations, particularly those concerning the shambles in the agencies. Unbelievable! Ronald Reagan once said: ‘We want to check government spending and they want to spend government cheques’. The delegation of the Dutch Party for Freedom (PVV) wants to check spending, not spend more. Therefore, a word of thanks to the Court of Auditors and the rapporteur for their good work and a word of contempt to the S&D Group and D66."@en1
