lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, may I add my congratulations to Mr Berger and the Parliament team, particularly Mr Walter. They all worked very hard through difficult and drawn-out negotiations to achieve this agreement. I firmly believe that, given the circumstances, the best and most sensible deal was brokered. Parliament was right to push Member States to put more resources behind the ambitious programmes that all the governments and political leaders have signed up to. But, more importantly, the negotiations have had key outcomes, non-financial gains that add value and will improve the efficiency and effectiveness of future budgets. Let me highlight just three: the reinforcement of Member States' responsibility to improve expenditure control in order to achieve a positive Court of Auditor's statement, an improvement in the execution of EU programmes and an effective input from Parliament into the budgetary review in 2008. The best course of action for now is to focus on this 2008 budgetary review. In it we must reform the structure of the budget from head to toe – deconstruct it to build a new improved framework that reflects the needs and expectations of the EU of 2014. One reason we had so many problems in getting agreement on future financing was that the Commission missed an opportunity to address the root problem of the current financial framework, namely the lack of flexibility. I therefore urge the Commission not to miss the boat again. Now we must build an EU financial framework that demonstrates transparency, one that is rigorous and displays solidarity. It has to be free from the legacies of the past; a framework that must combine the visions of over 27 Member States and is flexible enough to face future challenges."@en1
