2009/2006(BUD)
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 9
Paragraph 9

2009/2004(BUD)
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 14
Paragraph 14
14. Is also of the opinion that all means must be sought to increase the flexibility of interpretation as a crucial step to ensure good working practices and notes that, in many instances, problems and financial wastage could be avoided if there were a possibility to swap languages at short notice depending on the actual attendance at meetings rather than the planned attendance; believes that interpretation at distance should be examined, also in this context;
Amendment 16 #
2009/2004(BUD)
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 18
Paragraph 18
18. Also asks the political groups to slightly bring forward their tradat the requests by the politioncal budget work so that their requests can alsogroups be included at the Estimates stage in spring; is of the opinion that a very quick reaction, and decision, within a few weeks in the autumn does not meet the necessary requirements in order to consider these requests properly from a budgetary point of view;
Amendment 18 #
2009/2004(BUD)
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 19
Paragraph 19
19. Believes that, as is the case for all big organisationwhere the need arises, an independent external viewpoint on how resources are used and how work is organised is sometimes necessary andbut can only be beneficial if handled correctly; while stressing that a political European institution such as itself is unique in its character, considers that, in the long term, consideration should be given to, if problems are clearly identified and objectives of the examination to be carryingied out such an external analysis of its organisation and management; believes that in 2010, some specific sector(s) could be identified and looked at in this wayare sufficiently specified, measurable and targeted;

Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 25
Paragraph 25
25. Recalls that this sector is of high importance for the Parliament both in terms of meeting its current and future property needs as an institution and in terms of managing in the best way possible the property which it owns; considers that events in 2008 although some are clearly not predictable highlight the need for improvements in this area although some events are clearly not predictable, taking into account the exhaustive independent external report on the maintenance of buildings;
Amendment 27 #
2009/2004(BUD)
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 25
Paragraph 25
25. Recalls that this sector is of high importance for the Parliament both in terms of meeting its current and future property needs as an institution and in terms of managing in the best way possible the property which it owns; considers that events in 2008 highlight the need for improvements in this area although some events are clearly not predictable; points out the need for a reorganisation of DG INLO in view of the increased challenges the Parliament, being now the owner of the majority of the buildings it occupies, faces namely the increased surfaces to manage, the ageing of the buildings ,the environmental objectives set and the number and complexity of public procurement procedures;
Amendment 28 #
2009/2004(BUD)
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 26
Paragraph 26
26. In this regard, reiterates its call to see a specific report and any possible recommendations concerning unnecessarily high maintenance costs for, renovation and purchase costs relating to EU buildings, including the Parliament's; still wishes this to be a cross-cutting effort in order to establish the root causes, whether linked to a restricted market in any way, to burdens imposed by the Financial Regulation and public tendering, or to any other relevant factor; requests confirmation that the rule requiring the blacklisting of firms that have put forward unnecessarily high costs should be enforced;
Amendment 30 #
2009/2004(BUD)
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 31
Paragraph 31
31. Welcomes the fact that environmental goals are mentioned in the Bureau's document and, following the previous "EMAS process" and work on the "carbon footprint" , considers that 2010 will indeed provide an opportunity to continue these efforts inter alia by the forthcoming adoption of a CO2 action plan by the Bureau; points out that this will require budgetary investments both for further studies and for concrete investments;
