We voted against this report, which relates to the proposal for a Council directive on requirements for budgetary frameworks of the Member States, as it constitutes one of the most serious attacks on their sovereignty, and this situation will be even worse for any in the euro area considered to have an excessive deficit, which, in addition to continuous surveillance by the European Commission, could be subject to penalties.
This is a directive which is part of the legislative package on so-called ‘economic governance’, which is made up of six legislative texts, and which is a veritable attack on social and labour rights. It is also part of the European Union’s crusade against national independence and sovereignty, which is clear in the final agreement between the three institutions: Parliament, the Council and the Commission.
The postponement of the vote has only served to confirm what had already been decided. The intended outcome is an unprecedented attack on the rights of the national parliaments and on the Constitution of the Portuguese Republic, the members of whose Parliament are governed by guidelines from the European Union on their countries’ budgets; these guidelines are increasingly neoliberal."@en1
