"The European Parliament has decided to restore the Commission’s draft budget and to increase resources – selectively – in some chapters of the budget closely linked to political commitment to growth and jobs, particularly for youth. However, I notice that the proposal on payments by the Commission in its draft budget was established on the basis of the estimates sent by the Member States themselves, which were then revised downwards. We cannot currently contemplate jeopardising the implementation of certain European programmes. I do not think I am exaggerating when I say that the credibility and trustworthiness of European Union are at stake here. Paying our bills is a legal obligation that we cannot afford to neglect and it is certainly not Parliament’s job to explain this to the Member States. I therefore hope that during the conciliation procedure agreement may be reached with the Council on a satisfactory level of resources, in order to ensure that the EU budget is equipped with the necessary resources to invest in growth, development and job creation, with a sufficient level of payments to honour all of the commitments made in recent years."@en1
