Lady Ashton’s above inflation increase was buried within an EU demand for an
extra £7.2 billion in cash from national treasuries next year, a 6.8 per
cent increase that was attacked as “out of control” by the
Government.
The European Commission’s 2013 budget announced yesterday will mean that
British taxpayers would have to pay an additional £890 million to the EU at
a time of painful cuts to public services.
Despite huge public sector job losses across Europe, figures produced
yesterday by the commission showed that the EU civil service has been
reduced by just six postings over the last year, without any redundancies.
Mark Hoban, the Financial Secretary to the Treasury, said: “It is
unacceptable for the Commission to propose an inflation-busting budget
increase when governments across Europe are making difficult decisions on
public spending.”
An identical cash increase for Lady Ashton’s European External Action Service
(EEAS) last year was described as “ludicrous” by David Lidington,
the Europe minister, in the Foreign Office.
“The EEAS, along with the rest of the Commission, needs to manage
additional spending pressures,” said an FCO spokesman.
“That’s a task national governments face every day and so the EU must
make the same tough decisions.”
Lady Ashton, the second best paid female politician in the world, was not
present in Brussels for the commission meeting that agreed the EU budget
increase for next year because she was travelling to Brunei for talks with
Asian ministers on Thursday.
But her office justified the increase to her budget and insisted that she had
made “tough choices” despite the overall rise in costs.
“We are making savings wherever possible,” said a spokesman. “At
the same time, we have a mission, given by the member states, to build the
EEAS and are responding to world events and circumstances beyond our control.”
