European Parliament
Edite Estrela  (S&D ),
in writing.
(PT)
I voted for this report, since it grants the President of the European Parliament discharge in respect of the implementation of the European Union general budget for the financial year 2010. The entry into force of the Treaty of Lisbon has increased Parliament’s competences and volume of work, so there is a need to highlight Parliament’s efforts to overcome budgetary challenges by adopting concrete measures to improve the cost-efficiency relationship.
