Statement by the European Parliament
The worsening of the financial crisis has emphasised the need urgently to strengthen supervisory convergence and cooperation at the EU level. The development of common information technology tools and a common supervisory culture by the three EU Committees of Supervisors, CESR, CEBS and CEOIPS are two instruments by which to achieve that aim.
As a result, and pending the entry into force of the Community Programme for the period 2010-2013, the European Parliament and the Council invite the Commission to proceed with the proposal to provide interim financing to the three EU Committees of Supervisors in 2009 by way of a Commission decision along the following lines:
|
— |
Interim Commission financing for 2009 will be identified within the framework of the implementation and development of the internal market for the year 2009 under budget line 12.0201. That interim funding will therefore come out of the Commission's existing budget, from amounts already allocated by the budgetary authorities to the Internal Market and Services Directorate General for 2009. The funding decision itself will thus take the form of a Commission decision. |
|
— |
The Commission will provide the three EU Committees of Supervisors with limited action grants to finance (i) sectoral and cross-sectoral training projects developed by each of the three EU Committees of Supervisors and (ii) in the case of CESR, a specific IT project under the Transaction Reporting Exchange Mechanism (TREM), provided for under the Directive on markets in financial instruments (MiFID) (1), namely the extension of TREM to cover over-the-counter derivatives. Those are strategic projects that have been identified as priorities by the three EU Committees of Supervisors. |
|
— |
The total amount of the Commission interim funding for 2009 will not exceed EUR 500 000 and should cover part of the cost of the identified projects and trainings put forward by the EU Committees of Supervisors for 2009. |
The Commission decision on interim funding for 2009 is justified because of the exceptional circumstances of the ongoing financial crisis and because the contemplated Community Programme will enter into force only from 2010 onwards. That decision is therefore not intended to constitute a precedent.
