lpv:translated text	"Mr President, I want to thank all colleagues for the debate today. With this debate, and hopefully with the vote a little later, Parliament will give a very clear signal to the Council. I am sure that the Presidency will take that message to the Council itself. There are three important issues that we have to take from the debate. First, the budget needs to be sufficient. Therefore, any decrease in the budget will be accepted with difficulty. We have mentioned several times that we will not accept a haircut approach to the budget. Second, the budget has to be highly targeted. We are ready to discuss any ideas on better spending of the monies under the European budget, and we want to see these being used exactly for the purposes for which the EU budget is needed and expected. Third, this budget has to help the Member States do something that they cannot do on the basis of their national budgets, which is to help them with additional instruments to create growth and jobs in the Member States, because all taxpayers have an interest in this happening. These messages have to reach the Council and be understood before the Council takes a decision. We will also insist on the possibility of negotiating all the instruments contained in the legal basis. Again, whatever the Council decides will be taken into consideration, but we will not give up our right to negotiate on the legal basis. Finally, a word on own resources. I am very happy to hear from Commissioner Lewandowski that the Commission is going to start the procedures for enhanced cooperation for the FTT, but the FTT has to be an own resource and has to make it easier for the Member States to reduce their GNI-based contributions. We do not want a bigger European budget; we want a more stable European budget, and we will fight for it."@en1
