European Parliament resolution of 7 July 2026 on the Council position on Draft amending budget No 1/2026 of the European Union for the financial year 2026 entering the surplus of the financial year 2025 (09919/2026 – C10-0145/2026 – 2026/0090(BUD))

– having regard to Article 314 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

6. Takes note of the negative income item under Article 425, amounting to EUR 54 million and welcomes this method of incorporating costs for the budget stemming from payment made under settlement agreement entailing compensatory interest and default interest compensation related to the repayment of annulled or reduced competition fines in accordance with the pertinent judgements of the Court of Justice; recalls that the Parliament, when negotiating the 2024 recast of the Financial Regulation, had insisted on the application of this approach to avoid generating additional expenditure appropriations in the already overstretched heading 7; recalls that this solution comes to an end on 31 December 2027; invites the Commission to propose a definitive solution for the next MFF that achieves the same objective of avoiding any impact on the expenditure side of the budget;

7. Reiterates its long-standing call for sustainable, predictable and resilient revenue for the Union budget pursuant to Article 310 TFEU that should match the expenditure side and the strategic priorities and identified financing needs of the Union; reaffirms Parliament’sits strong commitment to the introduction of new own resources, not only for NGEU debt repayment but also to finance the Union’s enhanced policy ambitions; recalls that, without new genuine own resources, the financial burden will inevitably fall on Member States through increased GNI-based contributions; considers, therefore, that the introduction of genuine new revenue streams of at least EUR 60 billion per year is an essential condition for an ambitious Multiannual Financial Framework for the years 2028 to 2034;

8. Approves the Council position on Draft amending budget No 1/2026;

10. Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission, the other institutions and bodies concerned and the national parliaments.
