Paragraph 30
30. Notes that, for the fourth consecutive year, all margins under the Heading 3 ceiling are exhausted, proving that as things stand today the EU budget is not sufficiently flexible and not fully equipped to deal with the scale and depth of the present migration and security challenges facing the Union; welcomes, in this regard, the proposed mobilisation of the Flexibility Instrument for an amount of EUR 927.5 million in commitment appropriations;

Amendment 87 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 33
Paragraph 33
33. Believes that in the context of a wide range of security concerns, including changing forms of radicalisation, cybercrime, violence and terrorism that surpass individual Member States’ capacity to respond, the EU budget should encourage cooperation on security-related matters with the help of established EU agencies; in this context, questions how this high-risk security context is reconcilable with the proposed significant decrease of commitment appropriations (- 26,6 %) for the Internal Security Fund (ISF);
