lpv:translated text	"I supported Mr Garriga Polledo’s report because I found its general outlines justified in the light of the challenges that the European Union is to face over the coming years. It is unrealistic to transfer new responsibilities to Europe without increasing the financial resources on which it can draw. I would, however, have liked the European Parliament to move beyond the stage of legitimate demands and set a certain number of priorities. The ‘ever more’ refrain of a number of my fellow Members is too glib a response. What we need is to be convincing about the effectiveness of European expenditure compared with national expenditure. Furthermore, the qualitative dimension of expenditure is at least as important as the quantitative one. Finally, the transfer of funds unspent at European Union level to the EU budget rather than returning them to the Member States represents a source of considerable ‘savings’. As for introducing a system of own resources, I remain extremely hesitant about the unilateral introduction of a tax on financial transactions without a serious impact study. Support for a measure of this nature without being aware of its implications shows that the majority of the European Parliament is on the wrong track."@en1
