"Mr President, I, too, would like to thank the shadow rapporteurs and all colleagues here this afternoon for their contributions.
I am pleased that there does seem to be a broad consensus that we need to look to make savings in Parliament in order to achieve a low increase in our budget, and I am sure the Secretary-General is watching on television and taking note of this discussion.
Of course, there will be differences of opinion on how we achieve the savings and how much of a saving needs to be made. We have had examples today of differences over a single seat, the House of European History, staffing levels and translation costs: all differences between colleagues.
Another difference was the role of this working group that I have suggested. On that and other issues, we have tried to be as flexible as possible, so all we are asking for in terms of the working group is that it be considered and the details sorted out at a later date.
The aim of these guidelines is to strike a balance between the views of all colleagues in the Chamber, and the aim at the end of the day will be to get as low an increase in Parliament’s budget as possible, whilst at the same time ensuring the effective running of Parliament."@en1
