The Council's common position was approved by the Parliament subject to some amendments. Parliament's rapporteur was Ms. Doris Pack (EPP, Germany). One of these amendments sought to promote the use of lesser-used languages, such as Irish and Luxemburgish, and another related to the share-out of the budget. Parliament also wants to see an evaluative report on the results of the programme in the context of the resources allocated. It also voted to increase the funding from EUR 1550 million for the seven-year programme as agreed by Council to EUR 2250 million.�
