its
second and finaI
read'ing byhe CounciL
of
Ministers
onThe Councit wiLL
qive
a20 November 1978.
finaI
rut'ing
on compuLsory expenditure.1. It
should be rememberedthat,
beforethe
draft
budget was g'ivenits
fi rst
reading by Par t i ament :in its
preIiminary
draft
the
Commission had submitted reLativeLy smaILincreases compared
with
Lastyear
(+
15.5%for
appropriationsfor
paymentand
+
12.1%for
appropriations
fon
commitment) whiLeat
the
same time emphasizing those measures andpoticies
whichit
considered shou[d havepriority
(sociaL,
energy,industriat
and deveIopmentpoljcies
amongot hers ) ;
the
CounciL,at
the
first
reading,
had however, substantiaLLycut
backthese proposaLs,
particuIarty
wherethe
priority
areas t"tere concerned;the
result
was anoveralI
reductionof
the rate
of
increasein
non-compuLsory expenditure from 33.27.to
7.76%for
commitments anda
net reductionof
9.427.for
payments comparedwith the
1978 budget (seeP
-
115of
October 1978).2.
At the
first
readingin
October, ParLiament wasvery
criticaL of
theCounciL version
of
the
draft
budget, whichit
describedas
inadequate inview
of
the
Communityrs present andfuture
tasks
andthe
generat guideIinestaid
down bythe
Eunopean CounciI in
Bremen.To
a great
extent, therefore,
Partiamentreinstated
the
appropriations advocated bythe
Commissionandr'in
some cases, even expanded them,as,
for
instance,
in
the sociaI
sector deaIing
with
measures such asthe
anti-povertycampa'ign, assistance
to
smaLL and medium-sized undertakings and measures toheIp women.
tJith
regardto
the
RegionaL Fund, ParIiament went considerabty beyondthe
Commission's proposaLs andvoted
(extra)
increasesof
480miLIion
EUAin
appropriations
for
commitment and 198miLIion
EUAin
appropriationsfor
payment.
ParIiament aLso nestored
the
votumeof
foodaid
and'increased by?.
Certain appropriations earmarked
for
devetoping
countries
were increased and afor
measures connectedwith
entargement.cooperation
with
thespeciaL reserve was
set
aside0n
the
other
hand ParLiamentdid not
nestorethe
appropr.iations whichthe
Commission had requestedfor
certain
measunes underindustriaI
structure
poticy
(dataprocessing,
alrcraft
construction)
or
energypoticy
(the greater
useof
coaI
in
powerstations,
especiaLty wherethis
affects
the
Commission poLicy on coat-mining).In
short, the
increases voted by ParLiamentat
the
second readingamount
to
2
272 061 427 EUAin
appropriations
for
commitment and 846 923 147 EUAin
appropriations
for
payment.3.
0n 20 November,after
conferring
with
a
partiamentary deLegation theCounciL

onthe draft
as amended by parLiament.
