"The entry into force of the Treaty of Lisbon has meant that the European Parliament’s powers have increased, which naturally means new funds to meet the increased needs. That being the case, this estimate of the budget for 2011 represents a 5.8% increase compared to the financial year 2010, in an attempt to ensure that Parliament is able to fully make use of and exercise its prerogatives.
The budget for 2011 will increase to EUR 1 710 574 354, of which 20.32% will be for Heading 5 (administration), allowing the political objectives to be reconciled with the respective finance. This budgetary proposal includes provisions relating to representation for Croatia, to extra funds for Members’ secretarial services, to extra jobs, to an increase in the annual number of visitors that Members can invite, to the reduction in Parliament’s carbon footprint, and to financing for the House of European History and the Visitors Centre.
This report reflects a sensible budget, aimed at a policy of the sustainability of Parliament. However, it does not fail to have a rigorous approach to the effective use of available resources."@en1
