Mr President, I too should like to thank everyone who has been involved in this year’s budgetary procedure. I have already expressed my gratitude to the Commissioner and her officials, and, having already mentioned the excellent cooperation with the Italian Presidency and before that, the Greek Presidency, I should finally like to express openly my admiration for the qualities of the secretariat of this House’s Committee on Budgets and of its chairman, who has guided this procedure in a very inspiring manner.
(Applause)
