lpv:translated text	"I voted against discharge in respect of the implementation of the budget of the European Institute for Gender Equality for 2010. I was opposed to the proposal that a merger of the European Institute for Gender Equality and the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights should be considered in order to avoid duplication and reduce overhead costs. As the proposal to merge these two agencies was approved, I voted against discharge in respect of the implementation of the agency’s entire budget for 2010. I believe that it is important for the EU to hold to its commitment to having at least one EU agency in every Member State and I am therefore opposed to the proposal that Lithuania should lose the agency. I fully agree with the European Parliament’s proposals that we need to make savings and use money from the EU budget more effectively, but this can be done in other ways, such as optimising procurement procedures, allocating and using human resources more effectively and promoting greater rationality and efficiency in expenditure."@en1
