Discharge 2024: EU general budget – European Council and Council

✦ AI The report concerns the 2024 EU general budget, section II, which covers the European Council and the Council, and it proposes whether to grant discharge for how that money was spent. Parliament decided not to grant discharge to the Secretary-General of the Council for the implementation of the European Council and Council budget for the 2024 financial year.

Parliament calls on the Council to resume negotiations with Parliament without delay with a view to drawing up binding working arrangements for the discharge procedure.
