Paragraph 3
3. Points out that EBA, when carrying out its activities, needs to pay particular attention to the issue of proportionality and must strive to achieve outcomes that are unambiguous, coherent and free of superfluous complexity; recalls that the ESAs are responsible for micro- prudential supervision, whereas day-to- day supervision is conducted at national level;

Paragraph 5
5. Acknowledges that the setting-up phase of ESFS has still not been completed and therefore notes that the tasks already entrusted to EBA, as well as additional tasks envisaged in ongoing legislative work, require an adequate level of staff and budget to allow for satisfactory supervision; suggests that, as EBA's workload is increasingly shifting from legislative tasks to supervisory convergence and enforcement, EBA's budget and manpower should shift accordingly; emphasises, however, that any potential increases in EBA’'s means must be explained thoroughly and accompanied by rationalisation measures wherever possible;
