lpv:translated text	". − Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, among the numerous challenges that the introduction of the European Semester presents, I would like to mention two key aspects. First of all, this mechanism must not simply be an instrument for formal surveillance of budgetary policies between Member States and by the Commission. On the contrary, the European Semester must allow sincere and in-depth collaboration between the European Parliament and national parliaments, in keeping with our respective competences and the democratic principle. It is the only valid way forward with a view to complementarity of national budgetary policies. Secondly, with regard to the European budget: our Parliament, by a massive vote in favour of the Kalfin and Böge report, pointed out that 94 % of this budget was an investment budget. On that basis, I proposed, in my opinion included in the report, exploring the possibility of excluding Member States’ contributions to the EU budget from the calculation of the structural deficit, as defined in the two-pack, the six-pack and the Treaty on Stability, Coordination and Governance (TSCG). Our Parliament is conducting the mother of all battles, for a European budget that meets the overall interests of the EU and its citizens. That is the direction of this proposal, addressed both to net contributory and beneficiary States. It would free up budget negotiation. In fact, it would make it possible to leave behind the damaging logic of fair return and the search for rebates and move to an approach based on contribution in the noblest sense of the term. In addition, such a calculation method would make the most of all payments to our common budget, including those made by beneficiaries. Consequently, I ask Mr Gauzès, our rapporteur, to look again at his request, on behalf of the PPE, to remove this proposal."@en1
