Mr. Günther Oettinger:

It has. Now we are analysing the situation and the basis on which we are developing revenues, the amount of money, the systems, the methodology and this is one point on a technical level but on a political level as well, to see if the methodology is future-proofed in an ongoing way or has anything to be changed? Should it be just related to GNI, and in which years, or to labour market demography migration? Are there other relevant points which should play a role in coming to the levels to be paid member state by member state?
