European Parliament
Maria Da Graça Carvalho  (PPE ),
in writing.
(PT)
This report, for which I voted, concerns starting the second stage of the budget and sets out Parliament’s position. The main objective for the 2013 budget is to advocate an adequate level of own resources that enables the EU to meet commitments made in previous years and, at the same time, continued investment to support the competitiveness of European companies at a time of severe economic crisis.
