Hr. formand, da det formentlig er min sidste budgetforhandling her, vil jeg gerne give udtryk for mit store håb om, at det nye Parlament fortsat vil opnå fremskridt under kyndig vejledning fra de to kolleger, der er udpeget for år 2000.
Mr Chairman, since it is probably my last budgetary debate here I would like to say how much I hope that the new Parliament will continue to make progress under the good guidance of our two colleagues who have been appointed for the Year 2000.
