State of play
Along with negotiations on the 2015 EU budget, Parliament and Council have been discussing modifications to the 2014 budget.
Council has also asked Parliament to give an urgent opinion on a regulation related to the Own Resources system. The two arms
of the Budgetary Authority failed to reach agreement by the end of conciliation at midnight on 17 November 2014. The main
problems concern Council’s reluctance to again provide sufficient payments to tackle the ever-growing pile of unpaid bills and to
use the flexibility instruments above the Multiannual Financial Framework ceilings. The Commission has been asked to prepare
a new draft 2015 EU budget. If agreement is not reached by the end of the year, a system of provisional twelfths will come into
force providing emergency funding based on this year’s spending patterns.
