".
The EPLP is concerned about a number of points in the report as it currently stands:
On tax we are of the view that Member States should be allowed to level tax at national rates.
On salaries the wise persons' report produced a formula that was acceptable to the majority of Member States and MEPs and we see no reason for the unjustified change to a salary which is 50% of that of a European Court Judge.
On expenses we firmly believe that the European Parliament has an opportunity to rectify the longstanding anomalies by introducing a system of travel at cost.
The report's stance on immunities would require changes to primary law and we feel that this is not the appropriate report in which this should be included.
Finally, on the question of the implementation date, the EPLP cannot accept under any circumstances a possible post 2004 implementation date. The EPLP wants to go into the 2004 election campaign with this issue clearly resolved. As the European Parliament has just voted for a date beyond that period we cannot support the final vote on this report."@en1
