2016 budgetary procedure: joint text (A8-0333/2015 - José Manuel Fernandes, Gérard Deprez)
Jonathan Arnott (EFDD), in writing. ‒ I oppose the 2016 budget for many reasons, as outlined in Committee. Much money could have been saved in a variety of areas but there was a lack of political will to do it. On the other hand, it pushes the commitment allocations still higher and seems to me to be kicking the can down the road to a future budget. It is not a responsible budget.
