I denne forbindelse vil jeg imidlertid understrege, at de betalingsbevillinger, som Rådet har vedtaget i sit budgetforslag, selv efter denne nedskæring stadig er betydelig højere end gennemførelsesniveauet i de foregående år.
In this connection, however, I should like to emphasise that the payment appropriations which the Council determined in its draft budget, even after this discount, are still significantly higher than the implementation level in the previous years.
