Hvis Rådet alligevel agter at angive referencebeløb i sådanneretsakter, vil de blot være udtryk for lovgiverens ønske og ikke værebindende for institutionerne under budgetproceduren.
Should the Council still wish to enter a financial reference in such an instrument, it will be taken as illustrative of the will of the legislativeauthority and is not, therefore, binding on the institutions during thebudgetary procedure.
