lpv:translated text	"Mr President, the Committee on Budgets’ opinion on the DAPHNE II Programme is primarily rather technical in scope, and of course this technical side is very important. How much in terms of funding should be allocated to the programme for combating violence against children, young people and women? As Mrs Gröner stated, there has been a lot of interest in seeking funds from the previous DAPHNE Programme, and there were far more high-quality projects than there was money for. The programme has been implemented well and the funds used efficiently and, given the wealth of interest, there are clearly sound reasons for increasing the budget for DAPHNE, and also by an amount larger than the general budget increase we normally give in connection with enlargement. It is, however, no secret that the multi-annual budgets for this type of policy – an internal policy – has a very low ceiling. There is not a lot of extra money to give away. We must prioritise, and the Committee on Budgets has therefore been unable to give its support for a budget for DAPHNE of EUR 65 million. We have instead proposed that we stick to the budget framework of EUR 49.2 million proposed by the Commission. I can see that, in its report, the Committee on Women’s Rights and Equal Opportunities has arrived at a budget of EUR 50 million. It bears quite a lot of resemblance to the Committee on Budgets’ proposal, and it is an amount I would assess as defensible from a budgeting point of view. I should also like to say how very pleased the Committee on Budgets is that the Committee on Women’s Rights and Equal Opportunities has adopted our proposal that, after 2006, the commitment appropriations for DAPHNE II be dependent upon an agreement with the budgetary authorities. We shall, of course, only in the end be able to say how the budget for DAPHNE II will look after 2006 once the next multi-annual agreements and financial perspectives for the EU’s budget have been established, and it is of course a traditional proposal we have. Overall, then, I wish to say that we in the Committee on Budgets are able to support the report as it stands, but we cannot support the amendment designed to increase the budget to EUR 65 million."@en1
