lpv:translated text	"I have three comments on the multiannual financial framework. First, the amounts should be a bit lower. The EU should mainly confine itself to its core responsibilities. This was a good suggestion, for that matter, from President Schulz in the Dutch press last week, although I do not agree with his argument for centralisation at European level. Another way to make significant savings is to deploy the Structural Funds exclusively in poor regions in the Member States with the lowest incomes. Finally, the matter of the EU having its own financial resources. Parliament would like the tax on financial transactions and VAT remittances to be used to finance the EU. This would be instead of the contributions from the Member States. This is not desirable. The Member States are less wasteful, as can be seen from the 2013 EU budget. The Member States have the authority to collect taxes and so it must remain. After all, the Union is here to serve the Member States, even though it may not seem that way in these economically difficult and tense times."@en1
