The European Commission has drafted a proposal for a regulation on the financial rules applicable to the annual budget of the Union, which provides for the mobilisation of approximately EUR 126 billion. In this regulation, the Commission argues that the mechanisms for implementing the budget should function more efficiently and facilitate the implementation of EU policy, whilst simultaneously guaranteeing simpler and more transparent usage. I agree with the detailed contents of the Commission proposal, above all because it advocates increased simplification of procedures relating to subsidies, a more results-oriented approach and increased Member State responsibility for spending funds. I believe that the Commission and the competent authorities in the Member States should ensure that actions financed by the budget are actually carried out, undertake checks, and institute a rigorous, effective and consistent system of controls. I would also argue that the EU budget should act as a catalyst for investments made by the private sector, in particular small and medium-sized enterprises, so supporting the reinvigoration of the economy, the creation of jobs and the generation of wealth."@en1
