4. Declares, moreover, its opposition to any reduction in the level of key EU policies, such as the EU cohesion policy and the common agricultural policy (CAP) including the Programmes of Options Specifically Relating to Remoteness and Insularity (POSEI) ; is particularly opposed to any radical cuts that will adversely impact on the very nature and objectives of these policies, such as the cuts proposed for the Cohesion Fund or for the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development; opposes, in this context, the proposal to reduce the European Social Fund despite its enlarged scope and the integration of the Youth Employment Initiative;

Amendment 142 #
Paragraph 17 a (new)
17 a. Expects ceilings for commitments and payments to be set so as to reflect the requested amounts and appropriate implementation profiles per programme, while providing for sufficient margins to adjust to future needs; considers, furthermore, that the overall payment ceiling must take into account the unprecedented weight of outstanding commitments at the end of 2020 that will need to be settled under the next MFF, whose estimate is constantly growing due to major implementation delays;
Amendment 220 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 2 a (new)
Recital 2 a (new)
(2a) The level of ceilings should be set on the basis of the amounts necessary for the financing and running of the Union programmes and policies as well as the required margins to be left available for adjustments to future needs. Furthermore, the ceilings for payments should account for the large amount of outstanding commitments expected at the end of 2020. The amounts set in this Regulation as well as in the basic acts for 2021-2027 programmes should be agreed in 2018 prices and, for the sake of simplification and predictability, adjusted on the basis of a fixed deflator of 2 % per year.
