    AI summary:Adds a call for own resources reform and sustainable revenue, and extends cybersecurity support to institutions, while adjusting language on agency funding and tasks. Modifies wording on eu-LISA and EUAA appropriations, noting concern about cost increases and welcoming EUAA reinforcement, with calls for agencies to be equipped. Removes a phrase about decentralised agencies' budgets under Heading 7, simplifying the statement without changing substance. The other changes are formal: updating a regulation reference with official details.
