"During this period of crisis and decline in economic growth and at a time when austerity is the main feature of national budgets, I think that the European budget must contribute to economic recovery. We must not lose sight that the European budget offers real added value in some sectors, which is why the relevant budget lines must be used to offset the reduction in public expenditure domestically. The EU has also set for itself a number of ambitious objectives for 2020. Section 1a is particularly important to achieving these objectives and restoring economic growth. Unfortunately, the Council did not take a reasonable approach, applying major cuts to the budget lines for this section that is so important to the EU 2020 strategy. This is why I fully support returning to the Commission’s proposals and topping up the allocation, especially for innovation and research (CIP and FP7), providing lifelong professional training or for the Erasmus Mundus programme.
Last but not least, I am pleased that we successfully obtained the allocation of funds for organising the European Youth Olympic Festival in Braşov for 2013, an event conceived according to the model for similar events funded in other EU Member States, and which will benefit Romanian sport and young people."@en1
