Amending budget 1/2010: other sections, European Parliament, estimates of revenue and expenditure

This dossier concerns amending budget 1/2010 for other sections, the European Parliament, and estimates of revenue and expenditure. The amendments address means for Members, committees and political groups in pursuit of legislative excellence, reducing the buildings reserve, a zero-based budget policy for rigour and transparency, and an increase in the secretariat allowance, while noting concerns about burdening taxpayers during the economic and financial crisis.
