In addition, your rapporteur proposes negotiations with the Council and the Commission on the following key issues: first of all, adherence to the Commission's preliminary budget and hence compliance with the principle of 0.45% growth in the agricultural budget; secondly, no linear cuts in the agricultural budget headings but rather a specific cut on the basis of unused allocations in years 1994 and 1995, as Mr Brinkhorst has already mentioned, with a view to returning to the Commission's original preliminary draft.
Ingen lineær nedskæring af posterne på landbrugsbudgettet, men derimod en specifik nedskæring på grundlag af den manglende udnyttelse i de seneste år 1994 og 1995. Hr. Brinkhorst var allerede inde på dette, med henblik på at komme tilbage til Kommissionens foreløbige budgetforslag.
