Til sidst, hr. formand, selv om ordførerens fremgangsmåde skal hyldes, så må man indrømme, at det alt for høje niveau for betalingsbevillingerne, der holdes fast af Budgetudvalget, helt sikkert ikke fremmer en styring af de offentlige udgifter, selv om de for hele Frankrig udgjorde en yderligere udgift på ca. 27 milliarder francs.
Lastly, Mr President, although we are able to welcome the method used by the rapporteur, we must admit that the excessive level of payment appropriations put forward by the Committee on Budgets will certainly not help to control public spending, as this would represent an additional cost of some FFR 27 billion, even for France alone.
