Paragraph 7
7. Notes that seven transfers were approved in accordance with Articles 27 and 46 of the Financial Regulation in the financial year 2017, which amounted to EUR 57 402 860 or 3,01 % of final appropriations; observes that the majority of transfers were related to the Parliament’s buildings policy, and in particular to help fund the annual lease payments for the Konrad Adenauer building project; stresses that the practice known as ‘mopping-up’ is a relaxation of the principle of specification and thus deliberately contravenes the principle of budgetary accuracy; calls for appropriations for the financing of buildings, in particular the Konrad Adenauer Building, to be included in the draft annual budget to be adopted by the budgetary authorities;
