Ingen lineær nedskæring af posterne på landbrugsbudgettet, men derimod en specifik nedskæring på grundlag af den manglende udnyttelse i de seneste år 1994 og 1995. Hr. Brinkhorst var allerede inde på dette, med henblik på at komme tilbage til Kommissionens foreløbige budgetforslag.
In addition, your rapporteur proposes negotiations with the Council and the Commission on the following key issues: first of all, adherence to the Commission's preliminary budget and hence compliance with the principle of 0.45% growth in the agricultural budget; secondly, no linear cuts in the agricultural budget headings but rather a specific cut on the basis of unused allocations in years 1994 and 1995, as Mr Brinkhorst has already mentioned, with a view to returning to the Commission's original preliminary draft.
