Concerning flexibility, ministers in general welcomed the Commission's proposals as striking a balance between the need for budgetary discipline, on the one hand, and the need to provide sufficient means to address new challenges, on the other.
Seoses paindlikkusega tervitasid ministrid üldiselt komisjoni ettepanekuid, mille eesmärk on leida tasakaal ühelt poolt eelarvedistsipliini vajaduste ning teiselt poolt uute väljakutsete käsitlemiseks piisavate vahendite võimaldamise vahel.
