The Brussels proposal points to commitments totaling 145,200 million euros d, 1.8% more than this year. The European Parliament said when chumbou the first proposal that Europe could not continue to constantly submit budgets deficit.
The Vice President for Budget and Human Resources, the Bulgarian Kristalina Georgieva said today expect that the new proposal “pave the way for an agreement on the budget for 2015″ and that it “helps to tackle the growing problem of unpaid bills.” – that precisely from the fact that if orçamentarem more commitments than contributions
