Reforming EU budget
The agreement on budget reform was the main factor that helped to close two-year long negotiations about long-term financial framework 2007 – 2013. Traditionally, one of the most disputed points is the proportion of Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) on the whole budget. In the past more than a half of the whole EU budget was spent on CAP. At the moment it represents about 45 % of the budget. Commission aims at lowering expenditure on agriculture to 32 % by 2013.
