EU states divided over enlargement funding plan

The European Union unveiled on 30 January 2002 its proposals to finance an enlargement expected to take in 10 new Member States in 2004. The proposals require unanimous support from the 15 EU Member States and this will depend largely on a 'mid-term review' of EU agricultural policy due to start in June 2002.
