European Parliament
Hélène Goudin and Nils Lundgren (IND/DEM ),
in writing.
(SV)
It is well known that the June List opposes aid being placed under the auspices of the EU. There are a number of reasons for this. Aid policy, like foreign policy, is a national matter and, as such, ought not to be delegated to Brussels.
We are opposed to most of the report, including the calls for increased budgets. The rapporteur also involves himself in other strictly national matters, such as the monitoring and supervision of bilateral aid. There is also a proposal for the Commission to carry out strategic planning of aid given by the Member States. That is completely unacceptable.
