– Mr President, I would like to join in with the general chorus of concern and surprise at the situation we are facing today on the eve of voting for the discharge for the implementation of the European Union general budget for the financial year 2004, which, in reality, we had been preparing and which the Committee on Budgetary Control had prepared extremely carefully and on the basis of all the necessary information.
