"The financial perspective, totalling EUR 864 316 billion in commitment appropriations, is the disappointing outcome of a compromise between the Commission, the Council and Parliament, which have undermined the European spirit and threatened to render the Union powerless. The Union of 27 will have a smaller relative budget for 2007-2013 than that of the Europe of 15. Even though the financing of the CAP is being safeguarded and the budget devoted to SMEs seems to be enhanced, the Galileo project, the trans-European transport networks, research, regional policy, education and training and culture will be sacrificed. The rigour imposed on the national budgets did not permit an increase in national contributions, which explains why MEPs gave their approval to this compromise. This budget, which is unjust and complex and which no longer makes it possible to finance future policies, must be reformed. A form of financing based on own resources must be adopted, with the latter being fixed so as to provide the EU with full budgetary autonomy. These resources would be equitable, transparent, controlled by democratic procedures and in compliance with the principle of cost neutrality. The revision of the Community budget, which is scheduled for 2008, must enable us to carry out this reform – which can be done without amending the basic treaties – by means of an agreement between the European Parliament, the Commission and the Council, acting on the basis of unanimity."@en1
