lpv:translated text	". Thank you, Mr President, thank you, Commissioner, for the first response you have just given us. In so doing, you have confirmed what you said to our Temporary Committee and the Committee on Budgets. In short, I have to say that your response does not altogether satisfy us since it amounts to saying that the new Commission is adopting the previous Commission’s proposals without examining them in detail, and that it believes that the ball is now in Parliament’s and the European Council’s courts. We are in fact looking to the Commission to show not the passive attitude of a mediator but the leadership of a political executive strong in the confidence massively expressed by Parliament scarcely a month ago, to quote President Borrell. It is all the more necessary and urgent that the new Commission should adopt a strong position now that initial soundings of all concerned in the Council have revealed that, for the first time, some Member States are proposing to cut the relative amount of the present budget, as Mr Böge said. Thus, the Commissioner for industry is saying publicly that there are currently 27 priorities for the Lisbon strategy and that they should be combined into one. Will that not be reflected in the budget? You say there has been no debate in the Commission over the proposed amount for the ceiling of own resources. When will that debate take place? In what areas would financial sacrifices be inescapable for the Commission if this resources ceiling were not obtained? Can the proposals made by Mr Prodi reasonably be financed on the basis of the present system of European Union financing, or does the Commission believe that negotiations should cover income as well as expenditure? Finally, what provisional measures should be taken, and when, if, as seems highly likely, the Council fails to reach a consensus before the process of ratifying the Constitution is completed? As you have reminded us, President Barroso says we cannot have more Europe for less money. How much money does the policy proposed by President Barroso require?"@en1
