Resolution on the 2001 budget in view of the conciliation procedure before the Council's first reading

This procedure concerns the final negotiations to agree on the European Union's budget for the year 2001. It focuses on the conciliation process between the European Parliament and the Council to resolve remaining disagreements before the budget is officially adopted.
