"Madam President, Mr President-in-Office of the Council, your answer is very diplomatic, I have to say. We all know that this agreement exists; we know that there are already funds in a Luxembourg account and we know that these funds have to be shared out. We know that the budgetary authority is made up of two branches, namely the Council and Parliament. Would it not indeed be desirable, therefore, for the Council and Parliament, as the joint budgetary authority, to come to an agreement with the Commission on how those funds were to be apportioned? I do not believe that you can simply say that I should direct this question to the Commission. There is a great deal of money involved. It is reported that 10% would now be channelled to the Commission and 90% to the Member States, while the usual procedure in customs practices, when funds are claimed, is that 25% is channelled to the Member State and 75% to the Commission. This is therefore a serious matter, and one that cannot simply be dismissed with a diplomatic response."@en1
