lpv:spoken text	"UKIP voted against this decision to grant discharge and close the accounts for ENIAC. Discharge is a procedure whereby the European Parliament looks at the internal budgets of each EU agency and institution and gives an opinion on its implementation. ENIAC (European Nanoelectronics Initiative Advisory Council) is a research programme aimed at the integration and miniaturisation of devices and increasing their functionalities. ENIAC is set up as a private-public partnership, bringing together the EU Commission and Member and Associated States. The final budget for the financial year 2014 included commitment appropriations of EUR 2 356 000 and payment appropriations of EUR 76 500 000. This vote was a decision regarding discharge (non-binding opinion) and a decision on closing the accounts for the relevant body. While of course UKIP supports international cooperation on issues such as this on a bilateral basis, UKIP’s general position on discharge votes is to refuse the granting of discharge, in order to register our opposition to EU bodies and the EU spending British taxpayers’ money."@en1
