EU budget
After the breakdown in budgetary talks between the parliament and council, the commission on Friday brought forward a new budget proposal for 2015 which MEPs will now use as a basis for fresh negotiations with the council. ECR budgets spokesman Bernd Kolmel wants to see a budget that is better prioritised to meet the challenges of the 21st century. He has also said that he cannot support a budget that is unsustainable with the gap between the EU’s commitments and payments widening.
Negotiations begin: Tuesday
