The Committee on Budgets adopted, in the framework of a special legislative procedure (Parliament consultation), the report by Jean-Luc DEHAENE (EPP, BE) and Anne E. JENSEN (ADLE, DK) on the draft Council regulation on the methods and procedure for making available the traditional, VAT and GNI-based own-resources and on the measures to meet cash requirements (recast).
The draft presented by the Council does not significantly alter the proposal of the Commission, except for adjusting it to the final outcome of MFF/ OR negotiations, where the proposals for a new VAT-own resource and an FTT own resource did not receive support in the Council.
The committee recommended the European Parliament to approve, without amendment, the Council draft as adapted to the recommendations of the Consultative Working Party of the legal services of the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission.
