"Madam President, Presidents-in-Office of the Council, Commissioners, I originally intended to draw your attention to the importance of sport and to talk about how crucial it would be to increase funding for sport in the next seven-year budget from the level provided for in the present draft. We have submitted a motion to this effect. I very much hope that the House will support this motion, as sport has a crucial role in promoting social cohesion and a notable beneficial impact on health and work performance in society. However, I must also respond to Csaba Tabajdi’s comments on the Hungarian budget situation.
The decent thing, I think, would be to speak honestly and openly with each other; I think that the European Commission and Council should tell us what is required, what it would like Hungary to do. According to Eurostat figures, the Hungarian economy, the Hungarian budget, ended 2011 with the largest surplus, so I think that it is unacceptable that they still refuse to lift the excessive deficit procedure that has been in place against Hungary since 2004. On the basis of these figures, this is unacceptable, in my view."@en1
