"Madam President, once again this year, the debate on the EU budget is being held against the background of an economic and social crisis that is testing the budgets of all the Member States prepared on the basis of more rational public spending.
As regards cohesion policy, we all know that it is the main and most appropriate investment instrument in terms of delivering growth and job creation in the European Union. We had a large number of delayed payments at the end of 2011 that should have been addressed by allocating adequate payment appropriations in 2012. Shortfalls in payments are likely to worsen in 2013, when the application of cohesion policy programmes is expected to accelerate.
The European Parliament, Commission and Council should therefore immediately analyse the figures and requirements, in order to ensure that the implementation of programmes for 2013 is not jeopardised. The European Parliament should oppose any potential reduction in the level of payment appropriations in comparison with such requirements."@en1
