Considers that the EU should focus its limited financial resources on regions and issues where its assistance can make a real difference;
7. souhlasí s podstatným navýšením výdajů na SZBP pouze tehdy, budou-li přísně dodržována ustanovení interinstitucionální dohody o rozpočtové kázni a řádném finančním řízení;

2. připomíná doporučení Evropské rady ze zasedání konaného ve dnech 15.–16. prosince 2005, že by nejméně 90 % z celkové vnější pomoci poskytované v rámci finančního rámce na období 2007–2013 mělo být způsobilé ke klasifikaci jako oficiální rozvojová pomoc, tak jak ji v současné době definuje výbor OECD pro rozvojovou pomoc;
Recalls the recommendation of the European Council of 15-16 December 2005 that at least 90% of global external assistance under the 2007-2013 Financial Framework should be eligible for classification as Official Development Assistance under the current definition established by the OECD Development Assistance Committee;
6. zdůrazňuje, že je nezbytné stanovit dostatečné částky pro osmnáct zemí AKT, jež jsou dotčeny reformou společné organizace trhu s cukrem, což znamená, že je přinejmenším třeba vyloučit snížení částek stanovených v předběžném návrhu rozpočtu Komise, ale především zdůrazňuje, že je třeba zohlednit skutečné potřeby dotčených zemí uvedené v akčních plánech, jež tyto země předložily Komisi v souladu s nařízením Evropského parlamentu a Rady (ES) č. 266/2006 ze dne 15. února 2006, kterým se stanoví doprovodná opatření pro signatářské země protokolu o cukru, jež jsou dotčeny reformou režimu cukru v EU
Stresses the need to provide for adequate sums for the 18 ACP countries affected by the reform of the common organisation of the market (COM) in sugar, which at the very least means that there must be no reduction in the sums provided for in the Commission's preliminary draft budget, but above all also that account must be taken of the real needs of the countries concerned as set out in the action plans submitted by them to the Commission in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 266/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 15 February 2006 establishing accompanying measures for Sugar Protocol countries affected by the reform of the EU sugar regime
7. vyzývá, aby byla poskytnuta větší podpora vodohospodářství a zejména spolupráci mezi rozvojovými zeměmi, které sdílejí vodní toky v přeshraničních oblastech, s cílem podpořit hospodářský rozvoj a předejít konfliktům týkajícím se vodních zdrojů;
Calls for greater support to be given to management of water, and in particular cooperation between developing countries with shared waters that run across borders, in order to promote economic development and help prevent conflict resulting from disputes over water;
9. zdůrazňuje, že ochrana a regenerace život podporujících systémů, jako je zdravá půda, lesy a mořské zdroje, jakož i racionální řízení sladkovodních zdrojů, jsou nepostradatelnou součástí programů na snižování chudoby; trvá proto na tom, aby tyto oblasti byly v rozpočtu Evropské unie považovány za prioritní;
Emphasises that the protection and the regeneration of life supporting systems, such as healthy soils, forests and marine resources, and the sound management of fresh-water resources, are an indispensable component of poverty reduction; insists, therefore, that a high priority be given to these areas within the budget of the European Union.

3. konstatuje, že například skutečný nárůst počtu zaměstnanců v GŘ pro obchod činí pouze 12 úředníků, což je nepříliš vysoký počet vzhledem k úkolům, které musí GŘ pro obchod v průběhu nadcházejícího roku řešit;

Pomoc v oblasti obchodu
Trade related Assistance (TRA)
7. zdůrazňuje, že příslib předsedy Komise zvýšit současné a plánované financování ES na podporu obchodních kapacit rozvojových zemí na 1 000 000 000 eur ročně by měl být naplněn novými prostředky, a nemělo by se ho docílit přejmenováním pomoci původně určené na infrastrukturu na finanční pomoc v oblasti obchodu ani začleněním podpory zemím AKT, kterých se dotkla reforma režimu cukru;
Stresses that the pledge by the President of the Commission to increase current and planned EC funding to support the trading capacity of developing countries to EUR 1 000 000 000 per year should be implemented with new funding and without resorting to either the relabelling as TRA of aid formerly classified as infrastructure or the inclusion of the support towards ACP countries affected by the sugar reform;

Draft general budget of the European Union for the financial year 2007 - Section III - Commission
Východiskem pro tento návrh stanoviska je předběžný návrh rozpočtu (PNR) na rozpočtový rok 2007, který zveřejnila Komise dne 3. května 2006.
This draft opinion takes as its reference point the preliminary draft budget (PDB) for the financial year 2007 published by the Commission on 3 May 2006.
Váš zpravodaj by rád podal podrobné zhodnocení příznivého vývoje prostředků souvisejících s Lisabonskou strategií, jak se odráží ve vývoji jednotlivých kapitol PNR.
Your draftsman wishes to give a qualified appraisal of the favourable trend of appropriations relating to the Lisbon strategy as reflected in the changes in the chapters of the PDB.
Ve víceletém finančním rámci na období 2007–2013 jsou finanční prostředky PNR uspořádány v 7 hlavách, z nichž dvě částečně odpovídají pojetí Lisabonské strategie.
Under the multiannual financial arrangements for 2007-2013, the appropriations in the PDB have been arranged in 7 titles, two of which can be seen to be partly inspired by the logic underpinning the Lisbon strategy.
Vývoj prostředků přidělených těmto hlavám je třeba srovnat s celkovým zvýšením rozpočtu o 4,6 %.
The growth in the funding allocated to them is comparable to an overall budget increase of +4.6%.
