European Parliament
Alexander Mirsky  (S&D ),
in writing.
– In the context of the heavy burden of public debt and restraint in times of ongoing national budgetary consolidation efforts, Parliament, and all the EU institutions, should show budgetary responsibility and self-restraint. By calling for a freeze on their own allowances and travel expenses, the Members of this House wish to contribute actively to maintaining budgetary discipline and keeping the overall evolution of the Parliament’s 2013 administrative budget under the inflation rate.
