Amendment 2 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph -1 (new)
Paragraph -1 (new)
-1. Maintains that the 2015 budget, as regards the matters falling within the terms of reference of this committee, is cast in the same ideological mould as the EU now being built along federalist, neo- liberal lines, which is seeking to impose one governance model on all Member States, regardless of their specific nature and their level of development;

Paragraph -1 (new)
Paragraph -1 (new)
-1. Deplores the fact that the EU as such and coordination, supervision, and communication related to EMU in particular are accounting for a growing volume of expenditure, which is thus fuelling the propaganda machine – covering the European area and extending into non-EU countries – whose purpose is to disseminate the values of the current European model, even though these have already been rejected several times by referendum;

Amendment 26 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 4 a (new)
Paragraph 4 a (new)
4a. Notes, however, that the response to the financial crisis in the banking sector, brought about by serious flaws in the workings of the market, is taking the form of supervision by various agencies, but the 2015 budget is completely overturning that approach by cutting the amounts earmarked for supervision, thus limiting the technical and human resources available to perform that task and creating an undoubted contradiction that is bound to cause confusion among the public about the EU’s real aims;

Paragraph 6 a (new)
Paragraph 6 a (new)
6a. Objects to this budget, therefore, as it will not help to resolve any of the serious problems affecting the EU and its Member States and, indeed, constitutes a further stage in a policy that is causing the present economic stagnation, unemployment, and social inequalities.
